Werner has agreed personal terms with Liverpool on a five-year contract that will pay the player around £140,000-a-week.
McGarry went on to explain that his sources have told him that stories linking the player with Chelsea and Man United are wide of the mark, as although both clubs have made enquires about the German, they’ve both been told by his representatives that a move to Liverpool is almost done and that they should look at other targets instead.

Only you wouldn’t pay the release clause and he’s off to Chelsea.

So the sitution seems to be, We've agreed with the player, Chelsea have agreed with the club.

Which breaks first, Werners desire to play for us or RBL's demand for the release fee?

 

[InBiscanWeTrust]

You've got one of the highest wage bills in the league haven't you? Higher than Chelsea iirc.

I doubt it. Chelsea gave Hudson-odoi a contract for 180k a week. Think only a couple of lfc players near that in Salah and vvd

 

[organic red]

Could all be nonsense, we'll see once the season is over.

Exactly....they don't have a great deal to write about at the moment so anything goes.
One thing we know Klopp won't put up with is bullshit demands from players wanting to join LFC.
Fekir springs to mind.

Pretty certain that was the club, not the player, in that instance. But no probs if that is the case with Werner - if we can't afford to pay £200k a week but Chelsea can, then fair enough. He's a good player, but he's not as important to us as Virgil of Allison or Mane.

 

[Ivan Dobsky]

I can't remember exactly what it was so might be mistaken to be fair but thought yours was 2nd when last saw it.

Would be no 'apparently' about it though as the figures would come from published accounts.

Yeah, second by a long way behind United, but within a few million between us, City and Chelsea - but nobody believes City's figures, least of all UEFA.

If he wants £200k a week Klopp should tell him to get ****ed, its probably all BS anyway.
Apparently Fekir starting making more and more demands the further negotiations progressed so we told him no thanks

 

[organic red]

Not surprised. The big money clubs like chavs, City, Psg and so on can spend their riches. We were always tight, but the current situation probably means we won't spend a penny

If the current situation means things are financially tight that will apply to Chelsea aswell.
Chelsea wouldn't be throwing around big weekly wages surely?

I'll take your word for it, but I thought it was the Lyon chairman.

Who knows, there were all sorts of rumour and counter rumour. I think one of the Anfield wrap people mentioned some detail during a discussion.
Whatever happened, I bet Fekir wishes the deal had gone through.

Great thread, for months it's been "he's ours, he's ours, Klopp want's him"
Now it's, we don't need him, he's not worth it

The Klopp magic and the German wish to play for him eh, what could go wrong

 

[Ivan Dobsky]

Anyway, we're saving our money for Mbappe.

 

[Ivan Dobsky]

Great thread, for months it's been "he's ours, he's ours, if Klopp want's him"

Fixed.

 

[Diego]

Fixed.

Good man, don't fix what aint broke

 

[organic red]

MU are saving their money for Ighalo

Would take him in an instant if we could get him on a two year contract. True Red and is performing to suit.

True, I think he's a top player and have been saying so for a long time. I really think we're missing out if we don't get him but also can't fault the way that we've progressed in recent years. So I still hope we get him but remain confident that the club are making the right choices.

We have a transfer thread though, this should be merged. @Zanjinho
