Jeff Bezos to Liverpool? Amazon billionaire linked with stunning Reds investment
Last Updated on 22 July 2026
Liverpool could soon attract one of the biggest names in global business. Reports suggest Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has been approached over a potential investment in the Reds.
As per reports, Fenway Sports Group open to strategic minority investors, fresh discussions have sparked intrigue over what could become another major financial development at Anfield.
Given the shuffle behind the scenes at Liverpool, it would not be a surprise if the Reds had new owners in the next few months.
Jeff Bezos to hold talks over potential Liverpool investment
According to Sky Sports, the group is led by former Queens Park Rangers co-owner Amit Bhatia. Bhatia is also the son-in-law of steel magnate Lakshmi Mittal. Fenway Sports Group previously confirmed the consortium’s interest.
A spokesperson stated that Bhatia’s group had expressed interest in making a strategic minority investment in Liverpool. Bezos reportedly has a net worth of around $257 billion. Therefore, he ranks among the wealthiest people in the world.
The Amazon founder has explored sports ownership before. He previously considered bids for the Seattle Seahawks and Washington Commanders in the NFL. However, neither deal moved forward. Now, Liverpool could become his first Premier League investment.
Even so, the report stresses that Bezos has not yet committed. Therefore, there is no certainty he will join the consortium.
Fenway Sports Group continue search for strategic investors
Fenway Sports Group has owned Liverpool since completing its takeover in 2010. During that period, the club has enjoyed one of the most successful eras in its modern history. Liverpool has won two Premier League titles and the Champions League under the American owners.
In recent years, FSG explored outside investment before deciding against a full sale. Instead, the group chose to welcome minority shareholders. That strategy already brought Dynasty Equity on board. They acquired a minority stake in a deal worth around £150 million last year.
Meanwhile, reports suggest Bhatia’s consortium could seek up to a 30 percent stake. Such a deal would reportedly value Liverpool at around $6 billion (£4.485 billion). According to some rumours, it could be part of a broader exit strategy from FSG to sell the Anfield-based club.
After all, they decided to not buy a second club, which was their initial plan when they brought back Michael Edwards, who has now left Liverpool. As it stands, it could be that FSG are looking to move away from the Premier League or football, in general.
