Liverpool chief executive Ian Ayre: 'American owners won't sell up'

Liverpool chief executive Ian Ayre rejects rumours that the club's American owners Fenway Sports Group are preparing to sell up.

Liverpool chief executive Ian Ayre has insisted that owners Fenway Sports Group have no plans to sell the club.

The American group, which is led by businessman John W Henry, have begun construction on Anfield to expand the Merseyside ground's capacity to 54,000 seats.

Due to the offloading of a number of high-earning players in the last few months, there have been suggestions that the owners are making improvements in order to sell the Premier League outfit.

However, Ayre has told FC Business magazine: "Fenway are not going to dispose of the club as they are clearly demonstrating."

The Anfield redevelopment is due to be finished midway through the 2016-17 season.
