FSG have turned Liverpool into one of the most financially successful clubs in the world during their time in charge.
Questions over their decision to stick with manager Arne Slot after a poor 2025/26 will continue to be asked, but while their on-field decisions are not always perfect, behind the scenes, FSG have brought much success to the club.
In turn, it is perhaps not surprising to see that Sportico have now given Liverpool a new record-high $5.74 billion valuation (around £4.25 billion) this week.
With Arne Slot expected to stay, will Liverpool challenge for the Premier League next season?
Or will it be another difficult campaign? 😬

Liverpool given $5.74 billion valuation
The outlet have now released their latest list of the 50 most valuable clubs in the world for 2026.
Real Madrid top the list with an updated valuation of $7.7 billion after they earned $1.308 billion in revenue across 2024/25.
FC Barcelona keep Spain’s dominance going, taking second place with a value of $6.65 billion and $1.088 billion in revenue.
Manchester United are the first Premier League side on the list ($6.47 billion value, $878 million revenue).

Bayern Munich have now climbed up to fourth place on this year’s list, knocking Liverpool down to fifth, with a new valuation of $5.78 billion.
But the outlet says that the Reds made $926 million (around £695m) in revenue during 2024/25, which is a record-high sum since their data began.
$5.74 billion is also the highest-ever total FSG have been given since the list was first introduced in 2023.
Liverpool were worth $5.59 billion in 2025, $5.11 billion in 2024 and $4.71 billion back in 2023.
The increase is perhaps not surprising given the money FSG helped the Reds make last term, as was detailed in their latest set of accounts.
Media revenue increased by £60m to £264m
Matchday revenue increased by £14m to £116m
Commercial revenue increased by £15m to £323m
Administrative costs increased by £57m to £657m
Staff costs increased by £42m to £428m
Overall revenue increased by £89m to £703m
Profit after tax was £8m
Liverpool’s wage bill rose by £42m in that period as well, and after signing players like Alexander Isak and Florian Wirtz in the summer of 2025, a further increase is expected once the next set of accounts are released in the first half of 2027.
