Ed002 - Sarr to Liverpool for 40M. Apparently it is being reported that Watford has accepted a big of 25M upfront + 15M in adds-on. Any truth in that claim?

{Ed002's Note - I really don't know.}

Sounds unlikely unless we sell fringe players? Or?

Twitter rumour I think.

Isn't that less than Watford paid for him? The £25m up front I mean?

Can’t see Sarr coming in until outgoings are finalised.

As Hailstones has already pointed out surely Milot Rashica would be a better cheaper alternative.

Must be in the pipeline maybe they are agreed just not in the public eye - i imagine there must be exits planned for Grujic and/ or gini (or both), Wilson, Brewster maybe, karius and possibly shaqiri If sarr were to sign.

Any other funds on a Cb please kloppo.

Actually we have a lot of players to sell including the ones from academy. We have atleast two keepers to move karius grabaara or kelleher. Then we have philips in defense who can be moved. Then in midfield obviously wilson, grujic, shaq and we have woodburn. Upfront origi brewster and awoniyi are available that's 11 players to be sold. Club should focus on loaning and favorably selling these players first. That is atleast 80 million worth of players and about lots more in wages to save.

Can someone confirm to me that Sarr is actually any good and worth that sort of fee? The few times I saw him play for Watford, I must not have been impressed because I never noticed him. Also, we are full to the brim with afcon impacted players so I’m not sure why we keep jumping on that boat?

@AK how did you arrive at £80mil? Can I have a receipt for that valuation mate? Good point about some of the academy players though. As the days gone on this is looking more likely.
