Liverpool transfer news: Merseyside giants 'open' to sale of prospect after new bid

Third bid: Liverpool 'considering' sale of another prospect

Liverpool are allegedly open to the possibility of cashing in on yet another of their prospects before the end of the summer transfer window.

Liverpool are reportedly open to the possibility of selling Bobby Clark to Red Bull Salzburg.

The Merseyside giants have endured somewhat of an unusual summer transfer window having failed to add a single fresh face to their squad.

While that is expected to change in due course, an increasing number of players have departed Anfield, the latest being Fabio Carvalho who has moved to Brentford.

With several players having been released on free transfers and others sent out on loan, there is sufficient room in the squad and on the wage bill to make additions.

Nevertheless, it appears that the latest development could see yet another young player make his departure from the Premier League giants.

Salzburg pushing for Clark

According to The Times, Red Bull Salzburg are being persistent in their efforts to sign Clark over the coming weeks.

The report claims that Liverpool have previously chosen to reject an offer worth £8m, with their valuation set in the £10m region.

However, the Austrian giants are said to have made a third approach for the diminutive midfielder, a clear sign that they are determined to get a deal over the line.

There is an added Liverpool link to the scenario with Salzburg now managed by Pep Lijnders, the former assistant to Jurgen Klopp.

Liverpool are allegedly open to allowing Clark to make the permanent switch to the Austrian Bundesliga side, raising more funds for new boss Arne Slot in the process.

What would be the best move for Clark?

Injuries to other players ensured that Clark was provided with far more game time than he would have envisaged during the 2023-24 campaign.

The 19-year-old featured on 12 occasions, most notably playing the final 48 minutes of the EFL Cup final before Liverpool defeated Chelsea on penalties.

At the present time, though, the starlet is considerably down the pecking order under Slot having failed to feature for the first team during pre-season.

Not turning 20 until February, Clark does not necessarily have to be in any rush to leave Liverpool on a permanent basis, but first-team football next season feels a must for the England Under-20 international.
