Liverpool owners FSG confirmed bidders for Brazilian giants Cruzeiro

Liverpool owners FSG are on the brink of buying Brazilian giants Cruzeiro.

On Friday, former superintendent of the ombudsman and internal audit of the change of structure at Cruzeiro, Aloísio Vasconcellos, told members at the club's general assembly that the club could receive an offer from FSG.

Vasconcellos said: "The negotiation is international. There will be proposals from all sides.

"I support the proposal of the Bank of Boston, which has links with XP (Investments). They own Liverpool, which is the best organised and managed football club in Europe. He was even world champion."

Vasconcellos added: "This day marks this division, between the stage of disgrace, which has passed, fortunately, and the stage of grace, which looks forward. With a horizon, I believe, strong. Cruzeiro has assets, has 10 million fans."

Sérgio Rodrigues, Cruzeiro president said: "There is interest from club owners, from individuals with funds, but we have confidentiality agreements. People ask me to speak about a country. If I do, they will research everyone's lives and this could stop the negotiations. All successful negotiations. that we see in the market, their first step is confidentiality to work.

"What Cruzeiro fans can be sure of is that, like them, we want the best for the club."
