Following reports that the club had been put up for sale by American owners Fenway Sports Group, Conor McGregor has expressed interest in purchasing Liverpool.
McGregor declared his interest in running the Merseyside club on his official Twitter account.
“‘I WOULD LOVE IT! I requested my information on this, yes. Soon as I heard. What a turn of events! What a club!”
However, the Irishman is a well-known supporter of Manchester United, so it would be intriguing if he were to take over United’s sworn foes.
Additionally, he lacks the ability to rule Liverpool alone; instead, he might form a collaboration with others. His net worth was earlier estimated at $200 million USD by Celebrity Networth. The estimated market value of Liverpool is $4 billion.
Since his well-publicized defeat by Dustin Poirier in 2021, McGregor has not participated in any competitive events. The 34-year-old, known by his ring name Notorious, was formerly the lightweight and featherweight champion.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe, the richest man in the UK, is another prospective buyer of Liverpool although he is rumored to have disqualified himself. Ratcliffe wants to turn around Nice’s performance in Ligue 1.
