Following lucrative takeovers of Chelsea and Newcastle United last season, both Liverpool and Manchester United have been put up for sale Fenway Sports Group and the Glazer family respectively.
Louis-Dreyfus bought into the club in February 2021 and while he negotiated full governance control, it was confirmed earlier this year that he owned only 41% of shares. This has now increased to 51%.
This move also signalled the end of the controversial bid by 'The Fans Together' cryptocurrency group, who announced recently that they had agreed a price with Donald and Methven.
