Total Liabilities for Premiership Rugby Teams in the 2020/2021 Season

Total liabilities surged in 2020/21 as clubs accessed government-backed loans to weather COVID-19 revenue losses, with Bristol Bears leading at £59.17 million. Saracens increased liabilities to £44.17 million while Leicester Tigers and Newcastle Falcons both approached £40 million. The league-wide liability increases of 15-25% reflected emergency financing measures to maintain operations during the prolonged stadium closures and revenue drought.
