Managing director Billy Hogan has vowed "nothing will be a distraction" from Liverpool continuing to back Jurgen Klopp in the transfer market - and issued an update on the proposed Anfield Road End expansion.

The Reds earlier this month revealed a profit before tax of £125million for their latest set of accounts to May 31 2018.

Those numbers take into consideration Virgil van Dijk's £75m arrival from Southampton and the £142m sale of Philippe Coutinho to Barcelona.

However, they do not include the summer purchases of Alisson Becker,Naby Keita,Fabinho and Xherdan Shaqiri, who were purchased for a combined total of £173m.

Hogan, speaking in the February edition of fcbusiness, has indicated Klopp will again be able to spend big in the summer despite almost £200m being invested in the revamped Main Stand and the ongoing construction of a new training base at Kirkby.

"That represents a significant investment into the non-playing side and that is a great indication of where we are as a club, both on and off the pitch," said Hogan.

"From our perspective, what you are seeing is a continuation of that performance on the pitch and the reinvestment in the squad, which is the most important thing from our point of view; nothing is a distraction from putting a successful team on the pitch.

"Putting Jurgen and the guys on the football side in a position to compete at the highest levels, that is always our focus and we see our contribution to that in the form of being able to run the business in a better way and being able to drive revenues to invest back into the team."

Liverpool have also invested in their future in recent months by handing new contracts to Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, Jordan Henderson, Joe Gomez, Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Under FSG, Liverpool have won only one trophy - the League Cup in 2012. However, since the appointment of Klopp they have reached the finals of the Champions League and Europa League and are currently battling Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur for the Premier League title.

Hogan added: "We have always been up front about the fact we want to win and Liverpool is a club that should be winning trophies and we want to bring the club back to that position. We are all 100% focused on that.

"Clearly, if we accomplish that goal that would be terrific, not just for the commercial side, but also for the football cub and we are working incredibly hard to achieve that.

"Winning titles and success is incredibly important and incredibly positive. It is up to me and my team to help drive that forward from a commercial perspective."

Hogan reiterated talks are ongoing with New Balance and several other suppliers over a new kit deal, and also addressed the Anfield Road expansion that chief executive Peter Moore recently revealed had been temporarily placed on hold.

"We always said there would be the opportunity then to look at Anfield Road for further expansion, we are continuing to look at that, and that comes back to the feasibility of that project," he said.

"We want to make sure we do the absolute best job we can for the football club and consider all the different aspects of that before we make a decision.

"The club is going through a very comprehensive review and process so that when we come to a conclusion, it is the right one and the right way to move forward."
