Moreover, it has been reported that FSG, which sold a minority stake to Dynasty Equity in 2023, is reportedly focused on strategic investment rather than selling the club outright. </p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Speaking to <a href="https://www.slingo.com/blog/lifestyle/elon-musk-to-buy-liverpool/" target="_blank"><em>Slingo</em></a>, Dr. Rob Wilson, a football finance expert, dropped a bombshell that Musk might have to shell out close to £8–8.5 billion to completely takeover Liverpool.</p><p>“The value of LFC currently sits around the £4-4.5 billion mark. Someway behind arch-rivals Manchester United," he said. "A reinvigorated LFC, with new investment, playing success, new sponsors and a more cost-effective staff base (including players) could see the club push on toward a value surpassing £5 billion in the short term. Much like United, a $10 billion valuation in the US for the club, or £8-8.5 billion back in the UK, wouldn’t be out of the question if everything aligns like it needs to and they capitalise on new opportunities and trophy success." </p>

WHAT DR.WILSON SAID

<p>While Musk’s financial muscle could transform the club, fans have been urged to approach the rumours with caution. Concerns centre on Musk’s unconventional leadership style, which has drawn criticism in his management of other ventures, including Tesla and X, which could potentially impact the ethos and stability of the club.</p><p>“While fans continue to beg owners to spend more, the harsh reality is that’s not achievable in a world of PSR," Wilson said. "Liverpool are a financially well-managed club and there is no point in jeopardising that for the sake of appeasing fans who don’t care about the economics of a team.</p><p>“Successful businesses, like Tesla, SpaceX and X exist because they adhere to smart business principles and do not plunge themselves into financial instability. His interest might also scare off other would-be investors, such is his financial prowess and it’s unlikely that the club valuation will go much higher as the sensible option would be to pull out of any race, rather than get caught up in a bidding war."  </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Away from the takeover drama, Liverpool’s focus remains on football. Under the leadership of manager Arne Slot, the team faces Tottenham in the first leg of the Carabao Cup semi-finals on Wednesday, followed by an FA Cup third-round fixture against Accrington Stanley.  </p>
