Collaboration between Premier League owners is rarely advised outside of ownership meetings on rule changes and the like.

But Chelsea’s new owner Todd Boehly has proven that he doesn’t exactly play by football’s unwritten rules, whilst Liverpool owners Fenway Sports Group (FSG) are planning multi-million dollar investments.

However, Liverpool Football Club is not the only major asset that FSG own. As a conglomerate organisation, that has direct control of many different entities, their focus responsibility is not just to us.

And over at the Boston Red Sox, things aren't going smoothly either.
