Klopp doesn't want to sign Xhaka but is keen to sign Embolo, Götze and Rudiger acc to Sportbild.

Klopp can spend around €200m this summer acc to Sportbild.

£160million?! Ha, bullshit.

If we sign Embolo and Goetze, safe to say Lallana will be leaving.
 
Yeah, but I think 160 mill including sales isnt that far fetched though.
It's ludicrously far-fetched, even if we sell Benteke and Lallana for a combined £45million, which we won't, but lets go with it, that would still require an investment of £115million from the club, that's never happen, if we're lucky they'll invest £30million net. So where will that £85million gap come from? Coutinho? Sturridge? Lucas?
 
I wonder if the transfer kitty is also affected by the money spent to build the new stand?
Anyhow, like Mystic I doubt that we'll hit the £100 million mark in transfers unless players like Sakho, Henderson and Markovic are sold as well and we get a lot of money for them.
Balotelli will probably be loaned out again.

Yeah, if you get a manager like Klopp you simply have to give him money. I have always thought we would spend a lot this summer, and at least one player will be 30-35m
 
He'll have sought, and got, assurances when he was appointed about being able to spend what's needed once he made his mind up what that was.

It's nowhere near far-fetched. Klopp will have been promised a substantial kitty for sure.

We'll pick up around £100m (more I expect) this season and then this annually for 2016-2019 (expect a higher figure for us since we are screened more often) :

As others have said its not far fetched.
According to a few of the journos Klopp will get more money to his disposal then any of the previous managers.
New TV deal is insane now and if, IF, we win next Wednesday then thats another 40 mill £.
Seeing as Atletico and Real are qualified already for the CL next season, the winner of the EL, be it Sevilla or us, will go directly into the group stages.

Benteke, Skrtel, Lucas, Balotelli, Bogdan, Ilori, Sinclair etc. Could be about 40-45 mill incoming.

I have no doubt that we're filthy rich and will have a lot of money to spend, and maybe we'll invest a little more than the £30million I mentioned, because as has been mentioned, Klopp probably demanded big backing when he signed, but no way will we come close to the £115million net spend, thats an obscene amount of money.

That's all well and good, but will all of the money be spent on transfers?
It's a stupid discussion anyway, because I want us to spend all that money on transfers.
I guess we all have to wait and see. A big factor will be who and how many players will be sold.

Let's break it down.

Players currently on loan (excluding new signing and u20s):

Yeşil - Irrelevant. The fee will probably be very low.
Fulton - Irrelevant. The fee will probably be very low.
Balotelli - Who wants to buy him? A Chinese club hopefully, but does the diva want to go there. Loan to an Italian club most likely.
Wisdom - £1-3 million at most
Williams - Irrelevant. The fee will probably be very low.
Marković - Will he even be sold, when we've got Ibe and Ojo on the bench?
Jones - Irrelevant. The fee will probably be very low.
Alberto - £3-5 million at most.

(Valuation according to: http://www.transfermarkt.com/fc-liverpool/leihspieler/verein/31)

So that's about £8 million at most or £4 million at least. Considering that the fees are in Euros on the site I got it from.

Players in the first team squad:
The general consensus, based on posts here, tell me that the following will be sold:

Benteke - £20 -23 million
Skrtel - £8-10 million
Lucas - £7-9 million (strange valuation), closer to £4-5 million, so forget "transmarkt's valuation.
Allen - £4-6 million (strange valuation), I think it's around £8-10 million again, forget "transmarkt's valuation.
Ilori - £2-3 million.
Texeira - £1 million
Bogdan - £1-2 million

The total is at most £54 million or at least £44 million.
-------------------------------

The grand total being at most: £62 million
At least: £48 million

So basically it's around £50-60 million in player sales.

Make of it what you want, but if we manage to sell Balotelli and Klopp decides to sell Markovic as well, we might be looking at around £70 - 90 million in player sales.

You can't use Transfermarkt for any valuations - they are seriously weird. I saw a top player on there the other day (forget who it was I was checking) and they valued him at £9m whereas in reality he was going for 30-40m.

I separated this out because its actually something interesting.

One question - while undoubtedly the money isnsignificant isn't only going to be 20-30m more than last year ?

So a 200m spend is highly unlikely
 
We've always spent heavily............ on rubbish.

Klopp doesn't have a record of heavy spending at any of his previous clubs though. Can't see him demanding heavy financial backing.
He gave Mignolet a new contract ffs

Yep, Klopp is always talking about developing and improving players. Then he met Enrique.
In Dortmund he never had the financial backing he has or possibly has with us.

Like every summer with a new manage it's going to be interesting to see the comings and goings can't wait.
This summer is going to be epic.
Euros
Copa America
Olympics
New players

I think I might buy FIFA again

Of course it's dependant on where we actually finish but a Top 4/5 should reap us maybe 50M more than this season since we also need to add on additional TV revenue, as a greater number of our matches are televised than most other PL teams. But yes a spend of 200m is highly unlikely especially since salaries are going to be under pressure to increase too.
 
Couldn't care less about the money, just want Klopp to get the players he wants and early so we hit the ground running next season.

Gotze would be a great start, dunno about the other two
 
I'd be pleasantly surprised if we spend more than 50-60m net. But it's more about what we spend it on anyway, we've wasted the vast majority of what we've spent in the past.

Correct - in the last figures available ( 2014 ) we made 97mil domestically from broadcasting rights. We will have made a bit less last year domestically, however, the figures will have been bolstered by the champions league parcipitation ( which was 33 mil euros ). If we don't qualify for the champions league then the uplift could be quite meagre for the forthcoming season so I think peeps are getting a tad ahead of themselves here.

However, if we do win on Weds and come 4th or better next season the tv income could exceed £200mil if we do well in the champions league
 
Last season 2014/5 we received £92.75 mil domestically and 33mil euros from the champions league so approximately £119 mil in total.

This year 2015 /16 we are estimated to receive £ 91.6mil ( if we finish 8th ) and if we lose on weds 23 mil euros so approx £109 mil in total

Next year if we come 8th and are not in europe we get £124 mil so let's not get carried away. A big uplift in tv money depends on winning next week
 
And the unanswered question still remains will we spend every penny on transfers?

Me too. Sturridge cost a third of Benteke. The cost means nowt. It's the quality that counts.
