News is breaking in the States that George Gillett Jnr may be buying into Liverpool jointly with another major sports owner Tom Hicks, who has the Texas Rangers baseball team and
Dallas Stars ice hockey team as part of his portfolio.

The Dallas Morning News reports that Hicks flew into the UK earlier this week and was expected back in the USA today. The partnership idea was hatched last week when the two men met at the NHL All-Star Game.

Gillett is believed to be at the club today after his private plane landed at Liverpool John Lennon Airport this lunchtime.
