Liverpool's principal owner, John W. Henry, has seen his net worth decrease over the last few months. Henry has been at the helm at Anfield since completing a £330million takeover of the club back in October 2010.
Henry, chief of Fenway Sports Group, which owns Liverpool, has been overseeing a period of growth at the company over the last 12 months. FSG also own the Boston Red Sox in Major League Baseball and the Pittsburgh Penguins in the National Hockey League.
There has also been investment from FSG in NASCAR with RFK Racing and Boston Common, the TMRW Golf League outfit, which began earlier this year. Henry has regularly been a figure on the Forbes rich list, but has fallen down the rankings over the last few months.

Forbes report that Henry's current net worth stands at $5.5billion (£4.26billion), which sees the billionaire ranked 621st in the world. This is a decrease from October, when Henry's net worth was valued at $6billion (£4.64billion).
Despite the decrease, Henry's overall net worth is significantly higher than it was a decade ago. The figure stood at $1.6billion (£1.24billion) in 2015.
Henry also helped FSG oversee investment into the PGA Tour back in 2024, as the group acquired a stake in the golfing tour. The investment totalled up to $3billion (£2.32billion) with FSG part of a consortium that increased their global sporting portfolio.
It's not just sports that Henry has invested in over his career. The United States-based billionaire completed a purchase of the Boston Globe newspaper back in 2017, which has helped expand his net worth.
