Liverpool's wage bill will dramatically decrease should they fail to qualify for the Champions League.
Jurgen Klopp's side are set to miss out on Europe's elite club competition for the first time in seven years. The Reds currently sit fifth, three points behind Manchester United and Newcastle, but Liverpool have played a game less than those two teams heading into their final day trip to Southampton.
They require Man Utd losing twice against both Chelsea and Fulham at home to stand any chance of booking a top-four place. Newcastle's superior goal difference means that the Magpies have all but secured their Champions League spot, but losing heavily against Leicester and Chelsea may give Liverpool half a chance.
