With Ekitic's official announcement, Liverpool has invested 308 million euros to sign 5 people this summer.
TA analysis said that Liverpool is undoubtedly a big payroll, and Wiltz's weekly salary at Liverpool is about 200,000 pounds, which does not include the possible bonuses. With the relevant expenses that the employer needs to bear, Liverpool pays at least £12 million in salary for Wilz every year.
Ekitic's salary is not low either. When Newcastle was chasing him, his weekly salary was between 200,000 and 220,000 pounds. It is not clear whether his negotiations with Liverpool have achieved this goal, but if the intermediate value is used as the base salary, plus the employer-related expenses, Liverpool will pay Ekitic annual salary of 12.6 million pounds.
Wilz and Ekitic alone, Liverpool's annual salary expenditure will increase by about £25 million. But with Arnold's departure, Liverpool can spend 12 million pounds less of their salary (excluding bonuses).
