FSG exploring deal to buy Malaga
Liverpool FC owner
Fenway Sports Group (FSG) is said to be
exploring a deal to buy the Spanish second-division side Malaga as it looks to move into a multi-club model. But PSG's owner is also looking at the same club.
According to
The Athetic, a delegation from FSG has visited Spain to evaluate the prospect of buying a stake in Malaga, a team that was in the
Champions League semi-finals in 2013 but has since been relegated from the top flight.
It is currently 49 per cent owned by Blue Bay, a hotel and real estate group, and 51 per cent owned by the Qatari businessman, Sheikh Abdullah Al Thani.
"FSG routinely engages in conversations and evaluates opportunities across global sports, a common process to assess ventures that align with the organization’s strategic priorities," a spokesperson for the group told
Liverpool.com.
