According to the Daily Mail, Liverpool are poised to pay out more than £10m in bonuses to current players and rival clubs - although their commercial gains will still outweigh these payment offsets.
The Reds owe transfer add-ons to a selection of clubs, including Arsenal, Charlton, Hull and Southampton.
The Saints will profit the most, with four members of Liverpool's title winning squad signing from the south coast side: Virgil van Dijk, Sadio Mane, Adam Lallana and Dejan Lovren. The Mail predict Southampton could pocket up to £3m, while the Telegraph put the figure at around the £2.5m mark.
The club has already received over £150m from the sales of their four former players.
Arsenal are also due a bonus payment as part of the £35m deal that saw Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain switch the Emirates for Anfield in 2017.
Likewise, Championship sides Charlton and Hull are due to receive a windfall. Joe Gomez joined the Reds from Charlton for £3.5m in 2015, with Robertson signing from Hull two years later in an £8m deal.
The Reds will also be paying out big bonuses to their players. There is a £4m pool to be shared among the squad (around £150,000 per player) while a selection of individuals have some lucrative bonuses to look forward to.
Recent recruits Van Dijk, Fabinho, Alisson, Naby Keita and Oxlade-Chamberlain have been singled out to profit in particular as a result of contracts they signed upon their arrival at Anfield.
They are each poised to pocket between £500,000 and £750,000.
However, Liverpool are due substantial bonuses themselves from sponsors Standard Chartered and kit suppliers New Balance, while their lavish new kit deal with Nike also begins in July.
