According to AS in Spain, FSG are showing an interest in La Liga side Getafe.
The report does state that “only a study and some contacts have taken place,” though, “pending progress on the construction projects that could result in Getafe becoming part of one of the most important groups in world sport.”

This comes after reports earlier this year claimed FSG were “exploring” a deal to buy fellow Spanish club Malaga.
Opinion will be split on this one, but many Liverpool fans will dislike the idea of seeing the Reds go down the city route.

On this day in 1990, former Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson was born.
After a tough start to life at Anfield, having arriving from Sunderland in 2011, the midfielder grew into a great leader for the Reds.
Henderson captained Liverpool to Champions League and Premier League glory in 2019 and 2020, respectively, also winning two League Cups, and one FA Cup and Club World Cup apiece.
The Englishman may have left under a cloud in 2023, but his Reds career was a special one, ending with 492 appearances in total.
