Liverpool's valuation has seen a significant surge over the past year, thanks in part to its return to Champions League action.

Its recent Premier League triumph has helped too.

The Reds, who clinched the league title last month under Arne Slot's debut season at Anfield, have experienced a steady increase in valuation since Fenway Sports Group took over in October 2010 for an estimated $398 million (£300 million), ending the unpopular reign of former owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett.

The gains seen across the 2025 list were significantly aided by the strength of the British pound (up six per cent) and the Euro (five per cent) against last year's valuations.

A $5.56 billion (£4.19 billion) valuation for Liverpool would mean a return of investment of $5.16 billion (£3.89 billion) over the last 15 years for FSG, which equates to an increase of 1,297 per cent.

FSG has been associated with a potential sale in the recent past, with 2022 bringing much speculation around a possible exit
