Liverpool officially announced that Korkz joined, with a transfer fee of 40 million pounds (equivalent to about 46.88 million euros). Including Flynn Pont and Wilz, Liverpool has spent 200 million euros before July!
The Liverpool Echo previously stated that the reason why Liverpool can make big money this summer is very simple, that is, the club makes a lot of money and has excellent financial management in recent years, so it provides itself with enough financial resources to operate.
The following is an interpretation of Liverpool's Echo
The 2024/25 season fiscal year ended on May 31. This season, Liverpool only introduced Chiesa Jr. from Juventus, with a transfer fee of 10 million pounds and a four-year contract, which means the annual amortization cost is 2.5 million pounds. Currently, Liverpool's total amortization is 114.5 million pounds. Even with Chiesa, selling players can bring book benefits. The book value of some players has been declining year by year, and the actual cost is likely to have decreased in the previous fiscal year.
Moreover, Liverpool performed well this season. Although they stopped in the top 16 in the Champions League, they have earned more than 85 million pounds of revenue with their excellent performance in the league stage. In addition, there is a total of 185 million pounds in Premier League championship prizes and sponsorship income, so the club is very confident in finance.
With the rise in wage expenditure and bonus payments coming from the Premier League, Liverpool's total salary may soon exceed the 400 million pound mark, but their financial situation is very healthy. From the 2021-22 season to the 2023-24 season, Liverpool made a profit of 7 million pounds, a loss of 9 million pounds and a loss of 57 million pounds respectively. This means that the club still has PSR space of 48 million pounds, and the Premier League allows losses of no more than 105 million pounds in three years, Liverpool has a total of 153 million pounds, so there is no need to worry about violations at all.
In the 2024-25 season, Liverpool's revenue will almost certainly exceed 700 million pounds, and its profit is expected to reach 50 million pounds. Based on the new three-year cycle, the club's PSR space will further grow to about 100 million pounds, and Liverpool's amortization cost is more than 90 million pounds lower than Chelsea. It is okay to spend another 200 million pounds in the transfer market this summer. It can be seen that the results of Fenway's long-term planning have begun to show results, and Liverpool no longer needs to be as careful as in spending money as in the past.
