The Rhone Group's investment offer to Liverpool does not come with any strings.
The Independent says the Rhone Group willing to invest £100m for a 40 per cent share of the club.
There may well be other parties ready to challenge Rhone's proposal in the next few weeks and perhaps drive up the price to a figure which values the club higher, but one of the critical points about the proposal on the table at Anfield is that is a purely business offer and they will not seek to influence anything on the football side of the club.
A source suggested yesterday that they would like to see Liverpool run within its means "on the same lines as Arsenal".
