Millionaires battle to takeover Liverpool FC

DIRECTORS of Liverpool Football Club have been summoned to an urgent meeting tomorrow to debate three potential bids to take over the club.

The meeting at Anfield comes just 24 hours before the club must deliver details of its package to fund the new £180m 60,000-seater stadium at Stanley Park.

The Daily Post believes three bids will be put to the board that could see the ownership of Liverpool FC changing hands if shareholders, including majority controller David Moores, agree to sell or reduce their stakes.

Steve Morgan, the lifelong Liverpool fan who made a fortune by founding housebuilding company Redrow, is understood once again to be one of the bidders to buy the club.
