Liverpool’s owners FSG agree to sell minority stake in club worth £82-164m
The deal ends the search for new investment by FSG, who wanted to retain majority ownership of the Reds.
The new investment will primarily be used to pay off the club's bank debt.
"Our long-term commitment to Liverpool remains as strong as ever," said FSG president Mike Gordon.
"We have always said that if there is an investment partner that is right for Liverpool then we would pursue the opportunity to help ensure the club's long-term financial resiliency and future growth."
Liverpool lost £100m of revenue during the Covid-19 pandemic, also spent about £50m on a new training ground in Kirkby which opened in 2020, as well as £12m re-purchasing their previous Melwood training base for use by the women's team.
The ongoing development of the Anfield Road Stand is going to cost an estimated £80m, and follows the completion of the new £114m Main Stand which opened in 2016.
The Reds also spent about £145m on transfers in the summer, bringing in midfielders Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexis Mac Allister, Wataru Endo and Ryan Gravenberch.
