Liverpool could make a common cause with a significant Brazilian club shortly.

Fenway Sports Group, one of the most significant powers in English and European soccer, is reportedly intensely interested in acquiring the SAF of Atlético-MG, the current Brazilian champion.

According to information from the portal ‘Fala Galo’, the company that owns Liverpool is a strong candidate to buy the rights of Atlético MG in 2023.

Galo has big plans to adopt the company’s style so Fenway Sports Group can make Brazilian soccer history.

The company is known for being instrumental in Liverpool’s success.

The group acquired the Reds a few years ago and has since led the red club back to the top of European soccer.

If things work out with Galo, the partnership could bear good fruit for the Minas Gerais club and Liverpool.

In addition to the Reds, Fenway Sports Group also controls Major League Baseball’s Boston Red Sox.

The American baseball team belongs to the Eastern Division of the American League, which consists of the New York Yankees, Baltimore Orioles, Tampa Bay Rays, and Toronto Blue Jays.

Recently, the same company that owns Liverpool was linked to another Brazilian soccer club, Athletico PR, but the rumors did not go beyond that.
