    Just what I’ve come to expect really. It reeks of desperation when you’re trying to sign 12 year olds

    There are serious problems with Liverpools transfer policy for a long time now. It’s like the defence no matter who they get in it can’t be sorted.

    Regarding the communication before signing and incentives offered this is something done by all the big clubs, ya just have to look at Utd and when they first signed pogba, Chelsea and Gael kakuta, even think Everton got in bother before but why not pay school fees? I would’ve thought that schools fees were standard for all academy players at club like Liverpool

    @El Johno: Premier league brought in a new rule last summer so Liverpool had to remove school fees from the deal as it was not signed b4 new rule. Parents complained about this but the ban is for bringing them to a first team game.

    FSG out please I don’t care about them saving us from bankruptcy they care more about their American baseballers and clearly have enough money to pay fcking school fees! Liverpool are not a club that wants to make player profits they are a club that wants to make Champions league profits

    @Ollie Watson: paying school fees is against premier league rules since last summer. The article should have highlighted this.

    That’s a shame, the young lad could of slotted in in place of Lovren. Improve the defense
