Liverpool chairman Tom Werner has confirmed the club's owners, Fenway Sports Group, are looking at selling the Reds.
FSG recently said it "would consider new shareholders" amid reports it had put the Merseysiders up for sale.
"We're exploring a sale, but there's no urgency, no time frame for us, and as far as I'm concerned, it's business as usual," Werner told the Boston Globe.external-link
"One outcome could be our continued stewardship for quite a while."
