UK - DIC consider new Liverpool FC approach
Dubai International Capital (DIC) is contemplating a new approach for Liverpool FC after it lost out to Tom Hicks and George Gillet in the bidding for the club last year.
The American pair are having difficulties refinancing the approximately £300m worth of debt used to fund the takeover and are in talks with DIC about a possible sale. The club would cost DIC around £500m.
Hicks and Gillet paid £174.1m for a 100% holding in Liverpool last February and agreed to take on debt of £44.8m. RBS supplied the £300m debt package, which was arranged as a bridge loan.
