Liverpool have had plenty of dealings with Fulham in recent years, from offloading Lazar Markovic to the Cottagers in January 2019 to snapping up Fabio Carvalho in a £5m deal this summer.
Fortunately for the Reds, relations with Fulham had been mended somewhat by the time negotiations for the Portugal Under-21s international occurred, having been fractured three years ago when Liverpool lured Harvey Elliott to Anfield for a tribunal fee after failing to agree a compensation package with the Cottagers.
The Reds have Neco Williams, in part, to thank for that after sending the Wales international on loan to Craven Cottage back in January. Having helped Fulham win promotion back to the Premier League, he could now make a permanent return to the Cottagers with the Reds slapping a £15m price-tag on the full-back’s head.
