Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool are willing to sell Neco Williams in the summer transfer window and are looking for £15 million as transfer fee for the Wales international right-back, according to The Times.
The Times have reported that Liverpool are looking for £15 million for Williams, who spent the second half of this past season on loan at Fulham.
The 21-year-old made 14 appearances in the Championship for the Cottagers.
Williams scored two goals and gave two assists in those games.
Neco Williams should leave Liverpool
In our view, Neco Williams should leave Liverpool in the summer transfer window.
Trent Alexander-Arnold is the first-choice right-back at Liverpool at the moment, and that is not going to change anytime soon.
Williams is not going to be able to play regularly for the Reds, and we think that he needs to find a club where he would be able to play week in and week out.
The right-back is a regular in the Wales national team, who have qualified for the 2022 World Cup finals in Qatar.
Williams needs to play week in and week out in the first half of next season to be able to perform to the best of his ability for Wales.
The youngster has impressed Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp in training in the past.
Klopp told Liverpool’s official website in August 2020 about Williams: “I think Neco is – how young players are – they are kind of ‘projects’.
“I don’t want to use that word, but with my English I don’t have a better one. There is a lot of work to do, but there is already a lot of skills and potential there and that makes it so exciting.
“Neco from the first day he trained with us, he trained like a machine. Every day he became better and better and better and I thought, ‘OK, what’s that?!’”
