Record revenue in title-winning season

Feb 27 (Reuters) - Liverpool posted record revenue of 703 million pounds ($947.57 million) for the year up to May 2025, the season they won their 20th English Premier League title, the club said on Friday.

Profit and cost changes

The club, who topped Deloitte's chart as the highest-earning Premier League side, reported a profit of eight million pounds ($10.78 million) after tax with a sharp rise in media, matchday and commercial revenues, while staffing and administrative costs also went up significantly.

Revenue breakdown

Liverpool's media revenue increased by 60 million pounds to 264 million pounds. They also saw a rise of 14 million pounds in matchday revenue, and a 15 million pound increase in commercial revenue.

Cost increases

But administrative costs went up by 57 million pounds, and staffing costs also rose by 42 million pounds.

Club statement on rising costs

"Several other categories of costs have also seen double-digit growth in recent years, impacting the marginal return from core operations such as matchday," Liverpool said in a statement.

Key Takeaways

  • Record top line: Liverpool’s £703m revenue year to May 2025 came alongside an £8m post-tax profit, flipping the prior year’s loss as on-pitch success and event-day monetisation lifted income. (theguardian.com)
  • Cost pressure remains the story: Liverpool’s wage bill rose to a Premier League-high £428m (up £42m), while operating/administrative costs also climbed materially—supporting the club’s warning that cost inflation is squeezing marginal returns from core matchday operations. (theguardian.com)
  • Commercialisation beyond football is becoming material: Liverpool’s league title (clinched April 27, 2025) boosted global exposure, while Anfield’s expanded capacity and stadium concerts (e.g., Taylor Swift, P!nk) are increasingly cited as contributors to matchday/commercial strength and Deloitte ranking momentum.
