Liverpool named in top-five most valuable clubs

Liverpool have been named inside the top five most valuable clubs in world football right now. Only one English side sits above them.

Sportico have announced their list of the most valuable clubs on the planet right now. They've named 50 in total, with 16 valued over $1bn.

Liverpool are in fourth, sitting on a perceived valuation of $5.11bn. That's around £4.09bn in real money.

The only English club above the Reds are Manchester United, who are actually named as the most valuable in world football. $6.2bn in total - a club that somehow manages to do just about everything wrong for a decade and somehow become more valuable.

However, there's a condition here: Barcelona would only move for Nunez if Lewandowski were to leave the club this summer. There's a good chance of that happening, though.
