On Sunday Liverpool ended an often forgettable 2020/21 campaign with a 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace to secure a third-place finish.
Despite being some way off the pace heading into the run-in, the Reds rallied in the final 10 games to qualify for the UEFA Champions League next season.
That has provided yet more positive news for the club as manager Jurgen Klopp begins to plan for next term and what could be a busy summer of transfer activity.
As cited by Watch LFC on Twitter, Liverpool’s finances look to have received a welcome boost that will perhaps provide a boost to Klopp’s spending powers.

This influx could indeed be a crucial factor towards the possibilities this summer as Klopp hopes to strengthen the ranks in order to challenge once again next season.
Following the European Super League debacle, ownership group FSG have been under the spotlight more than ever – a strong summer transfer window could cool some of that attention.

But in all seriousness, the additional finances are proof of just how pivotal Liverpool’s strong end to the campaign was.
Alisson’s mesmerising header that ultimately all but secured Champions League football has perhaps never looked so important.
Whilst it’s unlikely Klopp will be given the entire war chest to splash, this money coupled with funs already in place and supplemented by outgoings could see the Reds strengthen adequately.
One deal that looks to be close to completion is the arrival of RB Leipzig defender Ibrahima Konate.
