There have been some interesting movements regarding Liverpool FC shareholders in recent years.

Fenway Sports Group (FSG) solidified Liverpool’s financial footing in September 2023 by securing a $100–200 million minority investment from New York-based Dynasty Equity, a deal designed to pay down pandemic-era debts and fund infrastructure projects like the Anfield Road Stand expansion.

The move underscored FSG’s balancing act: inviting strategic partners while retaining control.

Dynasty’s stake, estimated at 1.9–3.8%, came with no operational influence but signaled FSG’s openness to external capital to sustain long-term growth.

Now, another FSG stakeholder, RedBird Capital Partners, is making waves—not in football, but in cricket.

What is the latest on Liverpool shareholders?

RedBird, which acquired an 11% stake in FSG for $750 million in 2021, is exploring the sale of its 15% share in Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Rajasthan Royals, a deal that could double its initial $37.5 million investment according to a reliable Bloomberg report.

The potential exit aligns with RedBird’s history of strategic divestments, such as its recent pivot from Toulouse FC to acquire AC Milan for $1.2 billion in 2022.

For Liverpool, RedBird’s minority FSG stake has always been indirect, part of a broader portfolio that includes baseball’s Boston Red Sox, the Pittsburgh Penguins, and Formula One’s Alpine Racing.

However, RedBird’s IPL move is unlikely to directly impact Liverpool’s operations.

Its FSG stake remains separate, and Dynasty’s investment has already stabilized the club’s debt.

In 2021, RedBird’s FSG acquisition aimed to create a “strategic alliance” for growth, but its subsequent focus on European football (AC Milan) and Formula One highlights divergent priorities.

FSG president Mike Gordon has repeatedly emphasized that Liverpool is “not for sale,” with Dynasty’s involvement purely financial.

For now, Liverpool’s trajectory appears unaffected?

The club’s infrastructure projects remain on track, and the Dynasty deal has eased financial pressures.

Yet RedBird’s IPL exit serves as a reminder of the volatile nature of multi-club ownership models—and the delicate balance FSG must strike between global ambitions and Anfield’s legacy.
