#6 Liverpool - 31.6 million
Liverpool endured a torrid Premier League campaign in 2020-21, needing a late run of wins and slip-ups from their rivals to finish in the top four.
Nevertheless, Jurgen Klopp's men, who won their first English top-flight title in three decades last year, remain one of the teams to beat in the Premier League. In Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino, the Reds have one of the most formidable attacking triumvirates in the game.
Their full-back duo of Trent-Alexander Arnold and Andrew Robertson and goalkeeper Alisson are three of the best players in their respective positions right now.
After an injury-plagued 2020-21 campaign that resulted in a calamitous Premier League title defence, Liverpool will hope to fare better in the competition and in Europe this season.
#5 Paris Saint-Germain - 37.2 million
Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) may have failed to defend their Ligue title in 2020-21, but the French giants have one of the most enviable rosters of any club team in the world.
PSG narrowly missed out on a continental quadruple two seasons ago when they fell to Bayern Munich by a solitary goal in the Champions League final. Nevertheless, with the likes of Brazilian superstar Neymar, French sensation Kylian Mbappe, Copa America 2021 winner Angel Di Maria and Marquinhos, PSG are dripping with quality in every area of the field.
Lucien Favre's men are tipped for another strong campaign in all competitions this season, despite the rumoured departure of Mbappe, who registered a 40-goal campaign last season.
#4 Manchester United - 41.7 million
Manchester United, the record Premier League champions, have taken huge strides under their former player Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Despite failing to end their eight-year Premier League title drought in 2020-21 and losing to Villareal in the Europa League final, United are firmly on the way up. In Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba (although tipped to leave), they have two of the finest active midfielders in the game. They also have quality at other ends of the field, with Harry Maguire leading the defence and Marcus Rashford being one of many star forward players in their squad.
The Old Trafford outfit have also completed the much-awaited acquisition of Jadon Sancho this summer.
Although a return to their halcyon days under Sir Alex Ferguson is not immediately on the anvil, Manchester United are one of the strong contenders for the 2021-22 Premier League title.
