Liverpool will be allowed to spend £505million on wages and transfer fees under new Premier League financial rules, Football Insider can reveal.
Top-flight clubs have agreed in principle to adopt new cost control rules from the 2025-26 season onwards.
The current Profit and Sustainability Rules which allow clubs to lose a maximum of £105million over three years will be scrapped and the 2024-25 season will be used as a transitional period.
The new squad-cost ratio system will cap spending on transfer fees, wages and agent fees to 85 percent of a club’s overall revenue.
Liverpool generated £594million in revenue in their latest 2022-23 accounts, meaning the Merseyside outfit will be free to spend £505million under new rules.
Liverpool budget will soar to £500m+ when new rules are introduced
Their wage bill of £373million will chew into their budget, leaving £132million to be spent in the transfer window.
With the Anfield Road expansion now complete and Liverpool on track to qualify for the new Champions League format in 2024-25, the club will expect their revenue levels to soar in time for the new regulations in 2025-26.
The club’s expected revenue growth will subsequently inflate their budget and provide the next Reds manager with a sizeable war chest to invest in the squad.
As revealed by Football Insider, Ruben Amorim is expected to take the Anfield hot seat after both parties agreed a deal in principle.
