LIVERPOOL are NOT for sale any more.
Principal owner John W Henry and chairman Tom Werner announced in November they were “exploring a sale” of the Anfield club.

The Reds are valued at around £3.7billion – a massive increase from the £300million FSG bought the club for in 2010.
But despite some reported interest, including from Qatar, there have been no bids or high-level talks over a sale.
And now Henry has confirmed Fenway Sports Group’s U-turn to keep hold of the six-time Champions League winners.
FSG, though, are still open to new investment for Liverpool as they hope to attract a strategic partner, the Liverpool Echo reports.
In a rare public statement, the American said: “I know there has been a lot of conversation and quotes about Liverpool Football Club, but I keep to the facts: we merely formalized an ongoing process.
“Will we be in England forever? No. Are we selling LFC? No. Are talking with investors about LFC? Yes.
“Will something happen there? I believe so, but it won’t be a sale. Have we sold anything in the past 20-plus years?”
Henry made the comments alongside wife Linda, Werner and FSG CEO Sam Kennedy on the first day of Boston Red Sox training in Florida.
