Liverpool chief executive Rick Parry has said that there is nothing happening regarding the sale of the Merseyside club, and all efforts are being made to make the team successful.

The Reds were surrounded by speculation over their ownership earlier this year with Americans Tom Hicks and George Gillett reported to be having differences among themselves, prompting widespread reports that the club could be sold.

Links with Dubai International Capital (DIC), who had lost out to the Americans in their earlier attempt to buy the club, have sprung up from time to time in the media, while of late, Indian businessman Anil Ambani has also been reported to be interested in owning the English giants.

"It has gone quiet and everyone is delighted," said Parry. "The focus at Liverpool should only ever be on football.

"All is relatively stable, I am not aware of anything that is happening regarding the sale of the club at this moment. My focus is on day-to-day things and making sure we deliver.

"I am not sure of anything going on, it is a question best directed to the owners. As far as I am concerned we are focusing on things that we can control.

"We are trying to do the very best to produce a team that performs on the pitch."

One of the major cause for struggle for the owners has been the financing of the new stadium project, which is now going to be delayed due to the global credit crunch. However, Parry ruled out going for a ground sharing solution with local rivals Everton.

"Ground share is not being considered. With the financial markets in the turmoil as they are, any major construction project at this time is difficult, it is risky," Parry told Radio Five Live's Sportsweek.

"It is a case of a delay while things settle down, it is still a very, very good long term project. The economics of it still make underlying sense.

"I do not see any change in direction or any change in plans, and ground share is not back on the agenda.

"The point is, at this moment it is not the most sensible time to be borrowing huge amounts of money with the markets in turmoil. That will settle down and availability of money will increase.

"The project makes long term sense, it is the supply of money that is an issue, that will correct itself in time."
