Liverpool set to break world record for profits after Coutinho sale

Liverpool’s pre-tax profits reportedly look set to break the €100million (£88.2million) barrier, which would be a world record for a football club.

The Reds are currently at the summit of the Premier League and four points ahead of closest title rivals Manchester City.

A number of new signings last summer, including goalkeeper Alisson, have seen them lose just once in nineteen matches this campaign.

And the good news doesn’t stop there for Liverpool fans with Inside World Football forecasting that the club will make a record-breaking pre-tax profit.

Their run to the Champions League final last May is understood to have earned them €81.3million (£71.7million) with their reported £145million fee for Philippe Coutinho also significantly boosted the coffers.

With no Champions League football in the previous year, the club’s accounts for the 2017-18 season should see huge growth due to their run to Kiev.

Leicester City’s 2016-17 season accounts hold the current pre-tax profits record thanks to the club’s run to the Champions League quarter-finals.
