'When you are lied to, it's hard to take' - Liverpool to miss out on transfer windfall after winger exit

Liverpool have missed out on a multi-million pound windfall after Rangers confirmed Ryan Kent would leave Ibrox at the end of his contract this summer.

The winger joined the ‘Gers permanently in the summer of 2019 in an initial £6.5m deal, having enjoyed a successful 2018/19 season on loan at the club under Steven Gerrard as he was crowned the PFA Scotland Young Player of the Year.

Able to bank a further £1m in achievable bonuses, the Reds also negotiated a 20% sell-on clause as part of the deal. This was regarded as important with club bosses believing Kent's potential would see him ultimately return to the Premier League.
