Liverpool's summer revolution looks set to continue with FSG on the verge of buying a second club.

The Reds have seen plenty of upheaval already recently, with Arne Slot taking over from Jurgen Klopp after almost nine years of the German's reign.

Along with Slot, there has also been tremendous turnover in the coaching staff. Out have gone Klopp's stalwarts, with Liverpool insiders excited about the new arrivals.

Beyond the staff who will be supplementing Slot on the pitches of the AXA Training Centre though, Liverpool have also seen change at boardroom and recruitment level.

Michael Edwards has returned in a new role with FSG, while Julian Ward and Pedro Marques have come in to help the Liverpool owners with their dream of taking over a new club.

There have been reports that FSG will use the second club as a type of 'feeder' for Liverpool. It could help them secure and develop some top talents.

The Reds are already adept at doing this on home soil. Liverpool look set to sign Rio Ngumoha from Chelsea, for example, in another demonstration in their commitment to having the best prospects at Anfield.

However, while the likes of Chelsea have been plunging ahead with deals for huge talents abroad, Liverpool are still playing catch up.

Having another club in their stable may help FSG with this, and according to French outlet France Bleu, the Americans are now accelerating talks to take over at Ligue 2 side Girondins de Bordeaux.

Bordeaux are currently mired in financial difficulties. Unless they cough up 42 million Euros before the start of next season, they'll begin the campaign in the third division.

As a result, they are said to be looking for help. And according to the French outlet, owner Gerard Lopez has entered into talks with FSG 'in recent days.'

The discussions are said to be 'very serious' and moving 'very quickly' between all parties. A delegation for the Liverpool owners, including Ward, are said to have visited the French side last week.

Three members of FSG have now reportedly returned to Bordeaux and are accompanying Lopez as he meets with the French football watchdog to plead Bordeaux's case. The Americans are said to be set to introduce themselves and reassure the future of the club moving forward.

Familiar face in the dugout in Bordeaux Quite how the relationship between Liverpool and a prospective new club would look in practice remains to be seen.

It could even be that FSG operate the two as totally different entities, in which case Liverpool would not be affected at all.

Nevertheless, it's likely that every Reds' fan's second club would instantly become Bordeaux.

A big club fallen on some hard times, perhaps Liverpool supporters could relate in a very small way to what Les Girondins are going through.

As it turns out, fans of both clubs do have something else in common, too. Albert Riera is Bordeaux's current manager having taken over in 2023. Riera spent two years at Anfield between 2008 and 2010 and coached them to 12 in Ligue 2 last season.
