New overseas buyer in frame for Liverpool takeover

Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 08/24/2010 - 14:37

Keith Harris, an experienced deal broker, claims an overseas buyer is considering making an offer of between £400million and £500million for Liverpool.

The former Football League chairman, who has been involved in the sales of Aston Villa, West Ham and Manchester City in the past, said due diligence has already been done.

Harris also said the party he was representing was not one mentioned publicly before.

"The overseas buyer we represent has completed due diligence. A huge amount of work has been done," he said.

"It is none of the groups mentioned in the press. The ball is now in our client's court to make an offer.

"I do not think the deal will be done before the transfer window closes this month but the next pressure point is October when some of the RBS loan of £237million has to be repaid. It may happen then. But in the present climate these things are impossible to predict."

We are not in a hurry for the takeover deal because come October, the 2 clowns will be forced to pay a penalty and they will be scrambling for cash to refinance the £237m owed to RBS! By that time they will have no choice but to lower the asking price or RBS may temporary take over the club and sell to interested parties in an appropriate price!
Patience is the key to success!
