No takeover at Anfield, insists Liverpool owners

Liverpool owners Fenway Sports Group insist they have not received a takeover offer from a Chinese investment group.

Reports on Wednesday evening suggested that SinoFortone was attempting to buy the club from the Americans for around £700million, report the Liverpool Echo.

A letter circulating on social media - dated February 10 2016 - claimed to be from SinoFortone’s London offices stating that they wanted to enter into discussions with Liverpool over potential investment.

However, senior FSG officials say no such letter was received and are adamant that they haven’t had any discussions with SinoFortone about either part-investment or a potential takeover.
