The 'Financial Forecast 2022' predicts that Liverpool will finally overtake Manchester United in terms of revenue, forecasting record turnover of £602m for the club and a predicted pre-tax profit of £76m.

The report predicts commercial revenues will rise by around £23.6m to £241.2m for the 2021/22 period, with matchday revenues seeing the expected bump from £3.6m to £89.7m as fans returned in their numbers at the start of last season after a campaign played behind closed doors in 2020/21.

Liverpool and Nike reveal new third kit for 2022/23 season

Liverpool have unveiled their new third kit for the 2022/23 season - and its theme celebrates the flags and banners taken across Europe by the travelling Kop.

The Reds had already launched their home and away strips earlier in the summer, and have now announced their alternate kit. It features a predominantly green shirt, with red on the club badge and lining. The colour scheme is described as "Dark Atomic Teal and Rio Teal, with Siren Red sleeve cuff".

Liverpool will wear the kit on away matches in Europe, as well as away games in the Premier League against sides that have a strip that would clash with the team's home or away kits. The Reds travel to Naples to face Serie A outfit Napoli on Wednesday night in their first group match of the Champions League campaign.
