After he helped show Arne Slot's side the door in the Champions League, Liverpool and FSG are now reportedly ready to table a sensational £85m offer to sign one particular Paris Saint-Germain star.
FSG and Liverpool ready to spend big
Whilst they're often at the centre of Liverpool frustration when the transfer window swings open and the Reds take on a sell before they buy initiative, FSG could yet be in for a busy summer this time around. Slot, although watching on as his squad ease towards the Premier League title, is reportedly eyeing quite the overhaul and that won't come cheap.
The likes of Federico Chiesa, Harvey Elliott and Diogo Jota, among others, could find themselves heading for the exit door whilst Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold remain on course to leave as free agents - potentially igniting a frantic summer transfer window.

It seems as though the Reds are already beginning to think about replacements for the big three too, with names such as Wesley Franca, Marc Guehi and Alexander Isak all linked to Anfield in recent weeks.
Before any of those targets emerge, however, the Premier League champions in waiting seem destined to turn towards a player they're now all too familiar with.
According to reports in Spain, FSG and Liverpool are now ready to table an offer worth €100m (£85m) to sign Ousmane Dembele from Paris Saint-Germain this summer.

In a case of if you can't beat them, sign them, Liverpool's squad would much rather have Dembele as a teammate rather than a rival after he gave them all sorts of nightmares across two legs as PSG eventually advanced on penalties. Scoring the equaliser and taking full advantage of the Reds' defensive mix-up, the Frenchman passed his Anfield audition with flying colours.
"Magical" Dembele is the main man at long last
There was growing concern that Dembele was heading down a route destined to arrive at what might have been rather than a talented star realising his full potential. In the Frenchman's case, however, time has proven to be a virtue. Now 27 years old, he has put Barcelona nightmares and early PSG struggles behind him to become one of Europe's best at the peak of his powers.
Dubbed "magical" by U23 scout Antonio Mango, the winger has already impressed Anfield once and Liverpool's reported plan suggests that they're keen to ensure that they're benefitting rather than suffering from his talent the next time he's in Merseyside.
If the Reds are forced to find a replacement for Mohamed Salah this summer, then the PSG star should be a top candidate after scoring 29 goals and assisting another six in all competitions so far this season.
