'It's unheard of...' - Expert drops 'huge' off-field Liverpool claim; FSG are flying

Liverpool and FSG could be set for unprecedented levels of incoming prize money according to finance expert Dr Dan Plumley.

Jurgen Klopp’s side stand just ten games away from a potential history redefining season as the Reds go in search of a never-seen-before quadruple.

Having already lifted the Carabao Cup in February, the Anfield club stand on the brink of something remarkable as a UEFA Champions League semi-final tie with Villarreal awaits before an FA Cup final with Chelsea at Wembley.

Between all of that, Klopp’s men continue their quest for a second Premier League title in three seasons after returning to the summit with a resounding 4-0 victory over Manchester United.

Speaking to Football Insider, Dr Plumley claimed that a ”huge” financial boost could be added to the potential trophy haul.

“If they win the FA Cup, they’ll have got £3.4m in prize money. If they finish runners up, it’ll be £2.4m. Those are the numbers in terms of direct prize money. There’s a bit more for TV money, but it’s not massive.

“What they are looking to is the added value with sponsors, clients and new commercial partners. If they can point to being treble winners or even quadruple winners, that would give them huge leverage.

“We still refer back to the Man United treble-winning team in 1999, so you can use that status to your advantage. But imagine a quadruple. It’s unheard of in the modern game.”

Things couldn’t get much better at Anfield right now as the club thrives both commercially and in its main objective as a football team.

To add to the potential glorious season, it has been reported this week that ownership group FSG are in the process of sounding out a new shirt sponsor to replace Standard Chartered.
