Ben Doak to Bournemouth: Liverpool Cashes In as Doak Heads South
Bournemouth are closing in on a deal to sign the Liverpool forward Ben Doak for £25m.
The 19 year old would give Liverpool a strong return on the £600,000 they paid Celtic in 2022 training compensation.
The Scotland international has been linked with several Premier League clubs and Porto.
The proposed switch comes with Bournemouth’s Dango Ouattara poised to join Brentford for up to £42.5m.
Meanwhile Bayern Munich have opened talks with Chelsea over Christopher Nkunku.
That is the kind of return Liverpool will feel in the long run.
For club soul lovers this window is about feeling the rhythm of the crowd.
Pundits who pretend to understand the club miss the real pulse of Anfield and our songs.
It is a quiet reminder that football here runs on songs not spreadsheets.
Liverpool fans will watch Doak depart with a mix of pride and quiet worry about the next move.
The season remains young and the money will shape the next chapter at Anfield.
