World's most valuable clubs: Man Utd drop out top three as Liverpool climb and Arsenal fall

Manchester United have fallen outside of the top three richest clubs in the world while Liverpool have climbed three places, according to Forbes.

European champions Bayern Munich have moved above Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Red Devils, who have slipped down to fourth place despite being valued at £3.05billion.

Barcelona remain the world's most valuable football club, worth a staggering £3.46billion - although the difference between themselves and bitter rivals Real Madrid in second is fractional.

Premier League champions Liverpool are ranked fifth and are valued at £2.98billion, with Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal ranked sixth, seventh and eighth respectively.

The Reds recently struck a deal with private equity firm RedBird Capital, which saw Liverpool owners Fenway Sports Group sell a 10 per cent stake of their business for £538million.

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola may have a huge budget to work with compared to Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool, but the Citizens are valued at £2.91billion.

Chelsea, meanwhile, are valued at £2.33billion and Arsenal at £2.04billion.
