They are understood to be willing to sell for  4 billion and that would not be an issue for Ambani, who has a net worth of around  90bn, although he is likely to face huge competition.

Liverpool rode out plenty of early Ajax pressure to emerge as comfortable 3-0 victors and the round of 16 qualifiers. Steven Berghuis hit a post after three minutes and Du�an Tadic was also denied, yet Liverpool were ahead at half-time. Jordan Henderson's outside-of-the-boot cross got the finish it deserved as Mohamed Salah scored a brilliant goal.

Salah controlled a long kick from Alisson before turning Joao Cancelo and slotting the ball past Ederson to decide the game as Liverpool built on Wednesday's 7-1 win away to Rangers in the Champions League.

The weekend kicks off as new Brighton coach Roberto de Zerbi looks for his first win since taking charge after a draw away to Liverpool and a narrow defeat to Tottenham. De Zerbi's visit to Brentford gives him the chance to make it third time lucky. Tottenham's home game against Everton is Saturday's standout match: Spurs are third in the table, while Everton have become hard to beat, despite their setback at home to Manchester United last weekend.

However, Liverpool struck back through Darwin Nunez midway through the half, but deep into first-half injury-time Bukayo Saka restored Arsenal's lead after a rapid counter-attack. The teams went in for the breather with Arsenal leading 2-1 at the Emirates. Liverpool again got back on level terms through frequent nemesis Roberto Firmino.

Manchester United hit four goals without reply with a classy, dominant performance at the Etihad Stadium after the visitors held out for the first 20 minutes before Joao Cancelo gave City the lead. Phil Foden's fine form continued with a delightful chip on 32 minutes and Riyad Mahrez wrapped up three points four minutes into the second half with a clever volley.

Jordan Henderson made his injury comeback for England on Monday night having picked up a hamstring issue against Newcastle United in late August.Jurgen Klopp's squad will return to domestic action on Saturday against Brighton in the wake of a prolonged break from matches following the Chelsea postponement ahead of the September international fixtures.

The games between Chelsea and Liverpool, Manchester United and Leeds United and Brighton and Crystal Palace have all been put off due to the lack of police, and while new Chelsea coach, Graham Potter will be grateful for more time to work with his squad and Brighton will be able to find a replacement for Potter, the postponements will only lead to further congest an already crowded fixture calendar.
