Liverpool co-owner Tom Hicks is considering selling NHL team Dallas Stars due to a lack of finances, according to The Statesman.
The Hicks Sports Group recently revealed that the team has asked Galatioto Sports Partners to seek out investors who would pick up a majority stake in the NHL outfit.
Stars president Jeff Cogen has maintained that several enquiries have already been made concerning a potential sale, but insisted that a cash-in was not certain.
“I think the Dallas Stars are a model franchise, kind of the pride of the NHL relative to the Sun Belt,” Cogen said. “I would envision that we would be a very appealing asset.”
Hicks recently shook hands on a deal for the sale of baseball club Texas Rangers to a consortium headed by Pittsburgh attorney Chuck Greenberg.
Meanwhile, Liverpool remain heavily in debt, while the American has promised to spend big in the summer to bring in reinforcements.
