Liverpool FC takeover bid latest – Yahya Kirdi backed by rich UAE family

Members of the al-Qasimi family said to be involved in bid, with consortium said to have agreed terms with George Gillett and Tom Hicks

BetClic are offering all Liverpool FC fans a free £20 bet on the Liverpool v Arsenal match on Sunday.

Some encouraging news for supporters of Liverpool FC today, with reports emerging that the third-largest ruling family in the United Arab Emirates are backing the bid fronted by Yahya Kirdi. 

Members of the ruling family in Sharjah are said to form part of the ‘select group of investors from the Middle East and Canada’ and the al-Qasimis apparently have access to splendid wealth, with natural resources such as crude oil and gas in plentiful amounts.

Kirdi has proven himself to be a quirky consortium leader, having been viewed with scepticism due to initially claiming that a deal could be completed within a week and later stating that it would take at least two months for a bid to go through.

However, according to The Guardian, there are plans in place to close the deal shortly. A Liverpool source has claimed that:

"A proof of funds will accompany the closing of the deal in a form requested by Martin Broughton, the club's board and the owners. Everyone is focused on getting this done so that the next era in the history of Liverpool can begin."
