It has been revealed how much Liverpool paid in agent fees from February 4, 2025, to February 2, 2026. Despite that investment, the Reds have struggled to mount a strong defence of their Premier League title and could turn to the transfer market again this summer to refresh the squad.

Slot’s debut season initially exceeded expectations, as he seamlessly succeeded Jurgen Klopp and guided Liverpool to the title, but the current campaign has proven far more challenging. Elsewhere, Sunderland’s promotion saw their payments jump to £10.6m, while Newcastle and Leeds were among clubs to reduce spending.

League One spending surged 85% to £14m, while League Two saw a slight drop to £2.6m. In the Women’s Super League, agent fees increased by 75% to £3.8m, with Chelsea again the highest spenders at £1.1m.
