Rising talents like Cody Gakpo and Dominik Szoboszlai reportedly earn £120,000, while Jeremie Frimpong rounds out this group at £100,000.
Lower Tier and Emerging Players
Liverpool also maintains a group of lower-tier and emerging players who earn significantly less, highlighting the wage disparity within elite football squads.

Club Wage Bill Snapshot
The cumulative wage bill for Liverpool’s first-team squad in 2025/26 is estimated at approximately £3.31 million per week, translating to around £172.4 million annually. This total excludes bonuses, performance incentives, and the salaries of non-playing staff, which would further increase the club’s financial commitments.
Notes and Context
It’s important to note that these figures are approximations, drawn from publicly available sources and financial data platforms like Capology. Official club salary details are not publicly disclosed, and reported figures can vary slightly between sources—particularly for players like Alexander Isak and Cody Gakpo. Additionally, actual earnings may be higher when factoring in bonuses, performance incentives, and image rights, meaning these numbers primarily represent base salaries.
