The FSG said the investment would basically be used to pay off debts similar to the COVID-19 pandemic, stadium expenses related to Anfield’s capacity, expenses similar to the structure of its new educational centre, the acquisition of its old educational flat in Melwood and summer transfers.
“Our long-term commitment to Liverpool remains the same as always,” FSG chairman Mike Gordon said in a statement.
“We have said that if there was a suitable investment partner for Liverpool, we would use this opportunity to help ensure the financial resilience and future expansion of the club.
“We look forward to continuing the long-standing relationship with Dynasty to enhance the club’s financial position and support our ambitions for continued good luck on and off the pitch. “
Liverpool have spent around £200m on signings this year, bringing in Cody Gakpo in January and signing Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai and Wataru Endo this summer.
