BARCAP return to Huang, Rhone Group and the UAE?

|

According to reports, the firm leading the sale of Liverpool Football Club, Barclays Capital, are returning to previous bidders to see if any are willing to revive their interest in taking over the club. It has been reported that BARCAP have contacted the Rhone Group, the private equity firm that offered £110m for a 40% stake back in March, to see if they would consider making another offer. They have also apparently contacted Kenny Huang, the Hong Kong based businessman who made his interest in buying the club public back in August, as well talking to interested buyers in the Middle East about a possible takeover. Another possible link is a ruling family in the UAE , although most interest has been put off by the asking price that both Tom Hicks and George Gillett have put on the club.

    Totally agree with Peter. But after the nine points deduction, Liverpool CANNOT lose points as easily as they are now. And during the January transfer window, Hodgson should only need to splash about 60 – 70M on bringing in the likes of :

    David de Gea for 6M – Young and could be Reina’s understudy like Jones. Then, we can be rid of Itandje. Looking at his performances, I can see him as the next Pepe.

    Fabio Coentrao for 8M – He is a superb left-back, full of pace and is capable of running pass defenders. He’s like a left-footed Glen Johnson who loves going forward with the ball and getting shots on goal as well as supplying good balls into the box. We can get Mereiles to persuade him to sign for Liverpool.

    Javi Martinez for 15M – Young, has a great eye, really fast, good in the air(excellent for set-pieces), could be the next Xabi Alonso(a void that couldn’t be filled since Xabi left) and at 21 he is a heck load better than Lucas.

    Juan Mata for 14M – He’d be the solution to the lack of depth on the left-wing(something that has been missing for quite sometime now). He has the pace, the ability and a great mind . He is one talented young man. Plus he will cope well with Torres. It’d be fantastic to see him in play for Liverpool.

    Patrick Helmes for 17M – Forget Carlton Cole, N’gog is almost as good as him. If we want a quality striker, I would say Helmes is what we’re looking for. Torres and Helmes would be unstoppable. No defence can destruct the partnership of this two huge talents(considering he can adapt to the PL and that they can work together).

    • By purchasing these players, the chances of keeping Torres in a Liverpool jersey are more likely.

    And sell :

    – Charles Itandje for 0.5M

    – Sotirios Kyrgiakos for 2M

    – Fabio Aurelio for 2M

    – Lucas Leiva for 8-10M

    – Maxi Rodriguez for 4M

    Now, all Hodgson has to do is get the team together and we’ll be on song again.

    wait till oct 15th the two yanks will hopefully not be able to pay the £283 mill the owe and be forced by the RBS to hand over lfc and then we will have buyers queuing round the block

    If this is true – What does this tell of Martin Broughton and Purslow – they need to go ASAP if not sorted next month.Stevie Heighway is twice as intelligent as the 2 put together.
