Fenway Sports Group (FSG), the owners of Liverpool Football Club, have marked a significant milestone - 15 years at the helm of the club. In a heartfelt message, principal owner John W. Henry, Liverpool chairman Tom Werner, and FSG president Mike Gordon expressed their gratitude to the fans for their unwavering support.
The owners acknowledged the highs and lows of their tenure, thanking fans for “telling us when we've fallen short.” This gesture demonstrates their commitment to transparency and accountability. FSG's message emphasizes the importance of fan feedback in shaping the club's future.
FSG's 15-year journey with Liverpool has been nothing short of remarkable. The club has secured numerous major trophies, including the Champions League, Premier League titles, and League Cups. Despite these achievements, the owners remain humble, stating that their “work isn't done.” They pledge to continue building on the club's success, promising more memorable moments for the fans.
The owners' message concludes with a sense of responsibility and ambition: “Today is a day to look back with gratitude. But it's also a reminder that our work isn't done. There's still so much more ahead of us - more to achieve, more to win, and more memories to make, together.” This commitment to sustained success is a testament to FSG's dedication to Liverpool's future.

Under the Americans' ownership, Liverpool achieved significant success, winning the English league title in 2020, ending a 30-year drought, and claiming another Premier League title in the following season. The club also triumphed in the Champions League in 2019, securing their sixth European crown.
However, the club's journey hasn't been without controversy. Liverpool faced backlash over its involvement in the proposed European Super League, prompting a swift apology and withdrawal. Additionally, the club scrapped plans for ticket price hikes following protests from fans, showcasing the importance of supporter relations.
“Off the field, there have been times we've got things wrong,” the management trio said in their joint statement.
“We know that and we have learned from it. All our decisions are made with the best, long-term interests of the club at the centre of our thinking.”
Addressing the fans, they said: “Thank you for welcoming us, for believing in this team through every high and low, for telling us when we've fallen short and for showing the world what it truly means to be part of Liverpool Football Club.
“Today is a day to look back with gratitude. But it's also a reminder that our work isn't done. There's still so much more ahead of us - more to achieve, more to win, and more memories to make, together.”
Fenway Sports Group (FSG) has made a lasting impact on Liverpool Football Club since taking ownership 15 years ago. One of the most notable investments has been in Anfield, with significant upgrades to the stadium's infrastructure. Additionally, a state-of-the-art training ground has been constructed, providing the team with top-notch facilities to hone their skills.

The most visible measure of FSG's success, however, has been the team's impressive performance on the pitch. Last season, Liverpool celebrated a record-equalling 20th English league title, drawing level with Manchester United's long-standing record. This achievement is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the players, coaches, and staff under FSG's ownership.
“From the outset, our primary aims were simple: to bring success back to Anfield and to ensure the long-term health and stability of this great club," said the owners.
“We understood the responsibility that came with being its custodians, and we've tried to honour that every single day.”
