A multi-billion-euro deal in the works? Meet the super-rich, in the story and Jeff Bezos

Jeff Bezos, the fourth richest person in the world according to Forbes, has been approached by an investment consortium led by Amit Bhatia to join them in purchasing a minority stake in Liverpool Football Club. The group, supported by the Lakshmi Mittal family, estimates the club’s value at over $6 billion (€5.25 billion). Bhatia previously owned a share in Queens Park Rangers before selling it to allow his consortium to pursue the Liverpool deal. The potential investment would mirror a similar transaction from 2023 where FSG sold a small stake in Liverpool to Dynasty Equity for €192 million. Financial expert Amber Pinto noted that such deals are rare due to the complexity involved, but could lead to revenue growth and impact the club’s finances. While Bezos has explored other sports investments in the past, he has not pursued any yet.
