Liverpool owners FSG are negotiating to buy a struggling club as their strategy becomes clearer.
Liverpool's owners, Fenway Sports Group (FSG), have initiated talks to acquire French club Bordeaux. The American consortium, which acquired Liverpool in October 2010 and also owns the Boston Red Sox and the Pittsburgh Penguins, has overseen significant success at Anfield, particularly under Jurgen Klopp.
Under FSG's leadership, Liverpool has secured titles including the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, Carabao Cup, and Club World Cup.
Now, FSG is looking to expand their portfolio of football clubs and has confirmed their interest in purchasing Bordeaux from businessman Gerard Lopez.
Lopez has owned Bordeaux for three years, during which the club was relegated to the second tier. FSG has emerged as the leading candidate to acquire the club, with a statement confirming their interest.
The statement read: "Fenway Sports Group has expressed interest in the potential acquisition of French football club Girondins de Bordeaux and is in the early stages of dialogue and engagement. While the process is at this exploratory phase, we will not be making any further comment.”
Bordeaux has also confirmed ongoing discussions, and a thorough due diligence process is now underway to assess the feasibility of the deal. Both parties acknowledge Bordeaux as a favorable option for FSG, but several issues could potentially hinder the agreement.
Since the beginning of the year, FSG has been expanding its football interests. In March, they appointed Michael Edwards as the group's chief executive of football, Pedro Marques as director of football development, and Julian Ward as technical director. This trio is responsible for managing the football operations of any club added to FSG's portfolio.
Bordeaux entered administration in 2021 before Lopez acquired the club. They finished bottom of Ligue 1 in the 2021/2022 season, were relegated to the third tier by the DNCG, but won an appeal to stay in Ligue 2, finishing 12th last season.
