As reported by L'équipe last week, his owners of Paris Saint-Germain's Qatari Sports Investment (QSI) are in conversation to buy League 2-side Malaga, but the Athletic understands that they can now be confronted with competition.
QSI bought PSG in 2011 and more recently acquired an interest of 21.67% in the Portuguese side SC Braga. A new club club is now being added to the portfolio with conversations to buy Malaga that is progressing rapidly, with an agreement worth approximately € 100 million told by the publication.
While conversations with QSI seemed to have gone well, there could be a key in the making. According to the athletic owners of Liverpool's Fenway Sports Group (FSG), investigate the possibility of buying the Spanish side. The publication understands that the first focus would be on buying majority shareholder Sheikh Abdullah Al Thani.
In the midst of the importance of FSG, a delegation was sent in February to visit Malaga's facilities to assess the club prior to a possible acquisition.
