Although whether that desire would lead to action, Musk senior did not elaborate.

Nonetheless, this has sparked wildfire rumours about a potential takeover bid from Musk, who owns major corporations like X, SpaceX and Tesla.

And now FSG have been forced into action as well making their stance clear over whether they would be open to selling Liverpool to Musk.

FSG's response to Elon Musk Liverpool takeover talks

Musk is regarded as one of the wealthiest people in the world. According to the renowned Bloomberg's index Musk is the richest of all of the billionaires in the world.

His current estimate net worth is around $350bn. So, he definitely has the funds to acquire Liverpool should he wish.

But the bigger questions is whether Liverpool's current owners, FSG, would be open to a sale.

FSG have been open to selling the club. Back in 2022, The Athletic reported that FSG put Liverpool up to sale.

After that the club's owners opened Liverpool up for new investment selling a minority stake to US private equity firm Dynasty Equity.

However, their stance seems to have changed now.

The Times has written an article in response to Musk's takeover talks where they reveal what FSG insiders have been saying about the deal.

The report reveals there have been no talks held with Musk and FSG and that insiders have revealed they have no intention of doing so with FSG not considering reports over the takeover talks to be 'serious.'

That's about as firm of a response as you can get. It remains to be seen though whether or not Musk will try to test FSG's resolve further.

For now, talks of a takeover seem unlikely.
