Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, is poised to become a co-owner of Liverpool Football Club. He is part of a consortium that is in advanced talks with Fenway Sports Group (FSG) about purchasing approximately thirty percent of the shares of the English football club.

According to reports from The Times and Sky News, Bezos, along with other investors, aims to acquire the shares. The consortium is in an advanced stage of negotiations with the club's current owners.

Bezos, who is 62 years old, has an estimated net worth of 245 billion euros. This potential investment marks his entry into the sports world, where he has not been active until now.
