Premier League:Liverpool deny Abu Dhabi links


Liverpool have insisted that they have had no contacts from same Abu Dhabi royal family that also own Manchester City.

The Reds were reportedly approached by a member of the wealthy Al Nahyan dynasty who is interested to invest in the club.

Last season, Premier League rivals Man City have been bought over by Sheikh Mansour who is also a member of this family.

According to The Daily Star, the Premier League will sanction the deal between Liverpool and the Abu Dhabi investors even though there might be a confliction of interest as the two clubs are owned by the same family.

The same report also claims the Premier League chiefs believes the family rivalry might even add an extra edge.

Liverpool have debts amounting to £237million and it's an open secret that they are looking for investors. Three or four parties are believed to be interested but it is also thought that the potential investors are waiting to see if Liverpool do qualify for the lucrative Champions League competition next season.

Getting new investors to inject cash into the squad is also reportedly vital to the club as it would convince star players like Steven Gerrard, Fernando Torres and Javier Mascherano to stay at the club. It would also allow Rafael Benitez to have more clout in the transfer market next season.
