As part of their plans to establish a multi-club network, FSG's technical director, Michael Edwards, is leading the discussions on a potential takeover. This move aims to create a global football presence, with the network potentially including multiple clubs across different countries.
It's worth noting that FSG has previously faced controversy when they attempted to acquire French club Bordeaux. Although they eventually pulled out of the deal, it led to Bordeaux's financial struggles and eventual relegation from the French professional football league.
Additionally, FSG has previously expressed interest in acquiring Malaga, another Spanish LaLiga club. While no official announcements have been made, FSG has confirmed that they are open to exploring opportunities that align with their strategic priorities.
When asked about their interest in Getafe, a spokesperson for FSG stated, "We routinely engage in conversations and evaluate opportunities across global sports. This is a common process to assess ventures that align with our organisation's strategic priorities."
