Overall revenue for the 12 months up until May 2024 went up by £20m to a record £614m.

"Operating a financially sustainable club continues to be our priority and, with the continued increase in costs, it's essential to grow income streams year on year to maintain financial stability," Beacham commented.

"The success of our commercial operations, together with the opening of the new Anfield Road Stand, has increased our revenues during this reporting period, which demonstrates our desire to continue to compete at the highest levels of football in the men's and women's game.

"The global appeal of this football club continues to be phenomenal and is the underlying strength and opportunity we have for continued growth.
