Liverpool have sold the defender Sepp van den Berg to Brentford and midfielder Bobby Clark to RB Salzburg to take their summer sales total past £60m. Van den Berg made four senior appearances in five years for Liverpool, spending most of his Anfield career out on loan, most recently at Mainz. He has joined Brentford on a five-year deal worth £20m plus £5m in add-ons.
Liverpool paid PEC Zwolle £1.3m for the central defender and will also receive 17.5% of any sell-on fee. The 22-year-old is Brentford’s second signing from Liverpool this summer after Fabio Carvalho’s move in a deal worth up to £27.5m.
