Eduardo Saverin

Eduardo Saverin, co-founder of Facebook, is reportedly part of an investment consortium that is nearing a deal to acquire a significant minority stake in the English Premier League football club, Liverpool FC. The consortium is said to include Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. Reports indicate the investment values the club at approximately $5.9 billion, which would represent one of the largest valuations for a football club to date.
