Liverpool to Dubai


Liverpool's owners have been given a £400m take-it-or-leave-it offer from Dubai International Capital to buy the club, BBC Sport understands.

Government-run Dubai investment fund DIC have been in talks with George Gillett and Tom Hicks to buy the club.

BBC 5 Live understands Gillett is willing to sell, but co-owner Hicks is not, but both have to agree to sell for any deal to go through.


This story gives an insight into business goings-on in Great Britain. It shows that the continent is not that big of an area if a group from Dubai can bid on a team in England. This would never happen in the United States.
