‘Reads the game well’: Terry Butcher likes defender Liverpool sold for £4m

Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool have sold a number of players in recent seasons.

While some, like Takumi Minamino, simply failed to deliver at Liverpool, others such as Sadio Mane were good opportunities to make some money.

And we all know how Liverpool made massive money when they sold Philippe Coutinho to Barcelona.

One of the players Liverpool have got rid in recent years is Ben Davies.

It was a strange signing in the first place, and, like we all expected, it did not work out at all.

As reported by Sky Sports, the centre-back did not make a single appearance in the first team for Liverpool.

Davies had a loan spell at Sheffield United in 2021-22 and then last summer, he joined Rangers in the Scottish Premiership.

Liverpool paid Preston North End an initial transfer fee of £500,000 (Sky Sports), which was also the loan fee that the Blades paid to them.

Then last summer, Rangers paid Liverpool £4 million (Sky Sports) to sign Davies on a permanent contract.
