Liverpool owners, Fenway Sports Group are reportedly eager to invest in Segunda División side, Málaga.

However, they may face competition from PSG owners, Qatar Sports Investments, who revealed to The Athletic that they too were keen on a deal with Málaga.

ESPN reported that QSI’s talks with the shareholders of Málaga are “very advanced and progressing well” which may throw a spanner in the FSG works.

Dan Clubbe spoke to the co-host of the Spanish Segunda show, Liam Bambridge, about FSG’s interest in Málaga and the current state of affairs at the Spanish club.

“The current owner, Abdullah Al Thani, came in and oversaw the glory years in Málaga around about 10 years ago but then it all turned sour.

He seems to be an incredibly stubborn individual despite the fact the fans want him out to the extent that last year when Málaga were playing in the Primera Federación play-offs he offered free travel to Tarragona, which is a long way from Málaga, for all the fans that wanted to go and they all came back instantly and said no way, we don’t want anything to do with you, we’re not interested.

“So, the relationship between fans and owner is completely broken down, they have no trust in him, no interest in him continuing in charge but he seems to be ignoring that.

Basically, Málaga’s been chosen as one of the hosts for the 2030 World Cup; the stadiums about to be built and Málaga are about to move into an athletic stadium from the start of the season after next, which is not great for them but of course, at the end of that two-year process, they get a 45,000 seater stadium, crucially, paid for by the local council.

Whether or not Liverpool’s American owners will be future owners of Málaga remains to be seen but it’s a long way off being done if they are to pursue a deal.
