Liverpool could free up £85m for summer rebuild as FSG's next moves telling
Looking at the amortisation figures set to disappear, Naby Keita is expected to depart this summer, his £52.75m transfer fee having been amortised at £10.55m per year in the club accounts. He could be joined by Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, who arrived from Arsenal in 2017 for £35m. Oxlade-Chamberlain's contract initially ran for five years, amortised at £7m per year, but he signed a new deal in 2019 to take him through to 2023. That new deal, two years into his Reds career, when he had already had £14m amortised, made the remaining balance of his transfer £21m (£5.25m for each year of the four years he had left on his contract).
