Ambani and Roy battle it out for Liverpool Football Club

The two major players are standing against each other. Chairman of Reliance Industries, Mukesh Ambani and Chairman of Sahara Group, Subroto Roy are reportedly bidding for a 51 per cent stake in Liverpool football club.

Liverpool football club is said to be one of the most successful clubs in the history of English football. The club is at present owned by George Gillett and Tom Hicks, who acquired the club in February 2007.

According to the reports, both the corporate czars have tendered the similar bid. But this has to be seen who takes away the cake!

Liverpool is the fourth most valuable football team in the world, after Manchester United, Real Madrid and Arsenalas ranked by Forbes in April 2008.

However, news just came in around 1 pm that Reliance Industries Ltd hasn't made a bid to buy a stake in Liverpool FC, the English Premiership soccer club. "We strongly deny this report," said Manoj Warrier, a spokesman for Reliance, as per media reports.

It seems after automobile brands Jaguar and Land Rover, its time to see tri-colour stamp on English soccer clubs.
