Liverpool have paid Derby County around £500,000 to have the sell-on clause from Kaide Gordon's contract removed.
The Reds signed the teenager from the Rams in January 2021 after watching him make his Championship debut under Wayne Rooney the previous month and the 17-year-old moved to Anfield for a fee that was undisclosed at the time.
It was understood that figure actually stood at around £1.5m and Liverpool have now moved to offer the cash-strapped Derby a further £500,000 to take out the 20% sell-on clause that was written into Gordon's contract when he moved to Merseyside.
