The focus on Liverpool’s work in the transfer market is often fixed upon those arriving at Anfield, but the club have quietly established quite a reputation for selling too.
Liverpool ’s former sporting director Michael Edwards and current recruitment chief Julian Ward have been widely praised for their successful transfer strategy under the ownership of Fenway Sports Group. The duo have overseen the strengthening of Jurgen Klopp’s side over the past five years or so. They have spent lots of money in a very successful fashion.
That work has been underpinned by a similarly successful sales strategy, with funds frequently made available by moving on fringe players or valuable young players not needed by Klopp. A good example of the Reds’ tactics in the market will be made official soon in the form of Neco Williams’ sale to Nottingham Forest .
