The Reds have a lot of big moves this year. First, Werz was finalized, and Ekitic will also sign. In addition to the previous Flynnon and Kolkz, the total cost was more than 200 million euros.

This is not over yet. They are still dating with Isaac and others. It is not ruled out that there will be big things in the future.

The recent successive operations and spending huge amounts of money to buy players shocked all fans. Even those who don’t pay attention to Liverpool will be surprised by their rich behavior.

Whether it is hard or not, look at the Reds Liverpool. Now this statement may need to be changed. Being rich is their essence.

Why did Liverpool suddenly become rich and able to buy players with such a big deal? I'm also very interested. After finishing work these two days, I have also searched the information online and learned about Liverpool's recent situation from various channels.

After some research, some reasons why Liverpool became rich.

One is that they have vigorously strengthened the infrastructure construction around the arena. Since 2015, Liverpool Fenway Group has begun renovating the Anfield Stadium and expanding the stadium’s capacity.

intends to increase the number from the original 40,000 to more than 50,000 to expand the ticket revenue.

When I talked about club revenue before, I talked about the channels for teams to make money, and the more important one is ticket revenue. The larger the stadium and the more seats it can accommodate, the more revenue you earn will double every year. The improvement of

infrastructure is a reasonable way for the team to make money.

Liverpool did a pretty good job in this regard. They not only increased the number of fans, but also established private rooms, new media spaces, etc. The investment in these was roughly 100 million pounds.

The renovation took about two years to complete these facilities. According to the fiscal budget statistics, Liverpool will increase its revenue by nearly 12 million pounds each year for this renovation, and it will be able to make a profit after about 8-10 years.

Calculate based on time, 2025 happens to be in the "money period" of the club. The investment in infrastructure construction in the previous period has made returns in the following terms.

is equivalent to "planting trees first, then enjoying the cool air". In terms of

results, Klopp's team results during his tenure were also indelible. Since 2015, the Reds have achieved quite good results, reached the Champions League finals many times and have performed well in the league.

Although the number of league championships is not as many as Manchester City, their results are always stable and they can rank at the forefront of the Premier League.

Their competition bonuses and the income they earned in participating in the competitions have all risen. Take the 2023/2024 season for example. Liverpool's revenue throughout the year reached an astonishing £614 million.

This data is quite good. The profits before

, coupled with the positive feedback effect brought by the performance in recent years, the Red Army has also accumulated a lot of wealth, and the fiscal budget is also much more abundant, and the team has entered a virtuous cycle.

At the same time, their salary structure is very healthy. As of the end of the 2024/2025 season, the total cost of Liverpool's lineup was 749.4 million pounds, with an annual amortization cost of only 114.5 million pounds, 75 million pounds lower than Chelsea, and a net unpaid transfer installments of only 69.9 million pounds.

Teams tend to pay high proportions of advance transactions to reduce long-term debt pressure. In terms of financing, Fenway Group has increased its revolving credit line from 200 million to 350 million pounds, and used 116 million as of May 2025, and 234 million pounds can be called at any time.

The above paragraph may be more complicated to understand, involving many concepts of finance and finance. As a fan, you don’t need to worry too much about understanding what these details mean, just know that the team’s financial structure is reasonable, the planning is perfect, and there are not so many overdraft operations.

Liverpool has controlled well both the capital chain, the signing and salary structure, achieving a balance between competition and finance.

Compared with Manchester United, they are too healthy, which is the basis for the Reds to be rich and able to buy players on a large scale.

From the senior management to the lineup team, they all demonstrated the extremely professional efficiency of operating a wealthy football club and reached the level of a top wealthy club.

has truly realized the two-way development strategy of "stimulating domestic demand with achievements and expanding channels with management".

After reading so much content and looking back on Liverpool's development over the years, I am also happy. Although I am not a loyal and die-hard Liverpool fan, I do appreciate their football philosophy.

Whether on and off the court, Liverpool seems to have a "football flavor".

Just as Klopp chose Liverpool at the time and rejected Manchester United's statement, he said that Liverpool is the team I admire and has a similar concept to me. Manchester United's words are more like a "businessman" and it is difficult to maintain it for a long time.

Perhaps it is this healthy development model that has made Liverpool's progress over the years more stable and invincible in the Premier League.

Having said that, the Premier League has been quite interesting in the past two years. Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea operate differently, but they have all achieved success. Whether it is Liverpool's stable model or Chelsea's "big cleaning and distribution" development strategy, there are advantages.

The richer the richer the more you are, the richer you will become.

The Premier League has also entered an era of vigorous development of football capital.
