Financial Forecast 2023/24: Liverpool face record losses amid huge comeback efforts
IMAGO | Virgil Van Dijk applauds the away fans after Liverpools victory against Southampton.
Under new manager Arne Slot, Liverpool have returned to the top of both the Premier League and Champions League, signalling a powerful comeback from last season’s setbacks.
Off The Pitch’s financial forecast for 2023/24 shows that Liverpool’s operating loss is projected to nearly triple, reaching a record-breaking figure, threatening to eclipse the worst financial result in the club’s history.
Why it matters: As one of England’s biggest clubs, Liverpool’s financial health directly impacts their competitiveness in European football and could influence the club’s strategic decisions for years to come.
The perspective: Despite their financial challenges, Liverpool’s hidden player value offers a potential solution to alleviate financial strain, though capitalising on these assets could risk jeopardising their on-pitch success.

Such a setback comes with a financial cost, especially when expenses are geared towards competing on Europe’s grandest stage.
