**The full Liverpool share bought by a group involving Jeff Bezos has been revealed.**
A consortium fronted by Amit Bhatia with backing from the Amazon mogul and Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin bought into the Anfield club last week.
Bhatia’s father-in-law and steel tycoon Lakshmi Mittal also provided funding with the investing trio’s collective wealth estimated to be over £317 billion.
It was initally claimed that the group, trading under the name 1892 Holdings, had [taken up a 30% stake in exchange for a £1.65bn](https://www.clickliverpool.com/sport/liverpool-fc/67251-jeff-bezos-group-buys-liverpool-stake/) ‘strategic’ buy-in.
However that figure is understood to actually stand at £2bn for a 38% share that still values the Reds overall at £5.5bn despite the change in numbers.
Owners Fenway Sports Group retain a majority share of Andoni Iraola’s side and have stressed they are not currently pursuing any potential exit strategy.
But the Americans will offer 1892 first refusal to buy a controlling stake should they choose to relinquish control in the next 12 months as part of the deal.
Bezos’s involvement is considered to be a passive one with his K5 investment portfolio providing representation at board level in the new-look hierarchy.
Former QPR co-owner Bhatia was installed as Liverpool’s new vice-chairman while Saverin’s wife Elaine has also taken a seat in the expanded boardroom.
