[@GFFN on X] Breaking | Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold (25) has submitted a bid to purchase Ligue 1 side FC Nantes, according to L’Equipe. More follows.
Just to be clear, the info which the tweet skipped out is that it’s not him buying it alone but an English investment fund run by his father.

Key thing is that his dad is the main investment firm behind it but surely this comes to conflict of interest.
Happy to see him potentially doing good things with his money but it’s rather odd for an active player, who’s at the peak of his career to purchase a club that is in a top tier league.

Could Trent be a front for F$G? Nantes are currently 5th in Ligue 1 and Liverpool will face the same problem the Red Bull clubs, City and Girona, Milan and Toulouse faced if they qualify for the same European Competition (Champions League hopefully).
There are clear rules prohibiting clubs who are owned by the same entity playing each other, but are there any restrictions for owners playing against a team they own?

I’d rather have him try to save bordeaux, but it’s just pretty cool in general that he’s gonna buy a club.

What a load of Nantes-ense
How much did Salah pay for United?
I’m getting the word… Nantes
New contract, with FSG investing in his fund…? 🤔
