Liverpool FC news: Insider shares 'definitive' update on FSG MEGA-DEAL | OneFootball

An insider has shared a ‘definitive’ update on Liverpool owners FSG and a potential mega-deal that would rock the sporting world.

The Boston Celtics are up for sale and Fenway Sports Group has had their name in mix from the start. Though, they haven't actually done anything to force that.

But FSG already own the MLB franchise the Boston Red Sox, making them obvious candidates to move for the Celtics. At least, that's the thinking.

The Boston Herald mentioned FSG in an article on the sale but also admitted that there were mixed reports. Now a Boston insider has made it clear that the ownership group really don't have any interest in buying the Celtics.

"It was told to me, by someone very high up on the food chain, very matter-of-factly that as it currently stands, Fenway Sports Group has shown no interest in purchasing the Boston Celtics," Rob Bradford told WEEI Boston.

"And they have not reached out in potentially dipping their toe in that water."

Bradford goes on to explain that FSG have not made any moves in that direction and things would have to change dramatically for them to purchase the Celtics.

FSG not expected to purchase Celtics

There are a few things to remember here. Firstly, the initial Herald report made it clear that the current Celtics owners were looking to kickstart things by reaching out to 'qualified buyers'.

Even if FSG don't have interest, they're still very much in that category. They'll likely get an approach regardless of their stance.

The other factor is that this is the Boston Celtics. They're a gigantic franchise and one that will only appreciate in value - if FSG can buy the Celtics, we imagine they will. Again, regardless of their current stance.

But it doesn't sound as though this will happen. FSG will stick with what they've got and steer clear of adding another major entity to their portfolio.
