Danny Murphy has claimed that it makes ‘perfect sense’ for Neco Williams to leave Liverpool, as he told talkSPORT.
The Liverpool right-back helped Wales qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar on Sunday, after they beat Ukraine 1-0 in their play-off final in Cardiff.
Williams isn’t going to get into Jurgen Klopp’s starting XI anytime soon, with Trent Alexander-Arnold running the right side of Liverpool’s ship.
That’s why Williams moved to Fulham on a loan deal during the January transfer window, with the 21-year-old only earning seven Premier League minutes during the six months before.
Nonetheless, with Wales now heading to Qatar in November, Murphy thinks it’s best Williams leaves to get himself ready in the best way possible.
“I think so, (pushing for a move ahead of World Cup),” said Murphy. “That would make perfect sense
“You wouldn’t want to miss out on this wonderful opportunity by just not getting game time, even if it means just a loan.
“He did well actually against Ukraine. In terms of personnel motivation, when you are looking to succeed in your career as a young man and you are trying to, either find a club or establish yourself at a club, it gives you more incentive.”
A RETURN TO FULHAM WOULD BE SENSIBLE
Both Liverpool and Fulham will have each other’s numbers on speed dial, after concluding deals involving Williams and, most recently, Fabio Carvalho.
So, they might as well dial away and add Williams to their ranks this summer, after they earned promotion back to the Premier League.
It will help Fulham and Marco Silva out as they face a completely different test with the best of the best.
And it allows Williams to get to his peak ahead of the World Cup in November, as well as Liverpool being able to see where Williams is at in his progression by allowing him to compete in the Premier League on a regular basis.
