Liverpool FC explores sale of minority stake to Mittal-backed consortium

A consortium has been assembled under the leadership of British‑Indian investor Amit Bhatia, who is also known as the son‑in‑law of Indian steel magnate Lakshmi Mittal. The group’s formation was announced earlier this week, signaling a coordinated effort to pursue a strategic investment opportunity, though the specific target of the consortium has not been disclosed.

Bhatia, a prominent figure in international finance, brings extensive experience in cross‑border transactions and a network that includes major industrial and financial players. His familial connection to Mittal, one of the world’s leading steel entrepreneurs, adds a notable dimension to the consortium’s profile, potentially enhancing its access to capital and industry expertise. The consortium’s activities are expected to unfold in the coming months, with stakeholders monitoring its developments for broader market implications.
