Anfield supremo makes promise to keep best players
Liverpool co-owner Tom Hicks has reassured the club's supporters that no star names will be sold, even if Rafa Benitez's side suffer an early elimination from the UEFA Champions League.
A miserable start to the season sees Liverpool lie in seventh place in the Premier League and looking highly unlikely to make the latter stages of Europe's premier club competition.
Such a scenario would only exacerbate the club's already perilous financial situation and has led to speculation of player sales to make up the shortfall.
But Hicks is adamant the likes of Fernando Torres or Steven Gerrard will not be forced to leave Anfield because of cash pressures.
He told the
Sunday Mirror: "None of our star players will be sold, regardless of results.
"The club is doing very well due to rapidly growing commercial revenues.
"We have significant investor interest and want to make sure that we pick high-quality partners.
"We are happy with the way things are going financially but we hoped things would be better on the pitch."
