Liverpool sell more players, now it’s Bobby Clark’s turn

Salzburg –

Liverpool he never bought new players and instead let go one of his team members. Bobby Clark just sold to Red Bull Salzburg.

Clark was released for a fee of 10 million pounds to Salzburg and signed a long-term contract. Clark was immediately given the number 10 jersey.

He will be reunited with former Juergen Klopp assistant Pep Lijnders who is the coach of RB Salzburg and also Vitor Mator as an assistant coach.

“I’m very happy to take this important step in my career and I can’t wait to get started with my team-mates. This is the right move and the right club for me,” Clark said on the website club official.

“I saw the Liverpool players who developed in Salzburg like Sadio Mane and Dominik Szoboszlai, they are my main inspiration. Everyone knows how good the young players are here. I also knew Pep Lijnders from Liverpool and he was the one who brought me here. “

Clark joined Liverpool in 2021 with a total of 14 appearances and one goal for the senior team. He appeared as a substitute when Liverpool won the Carabao Cup last February.

Clark’s departure means that Liverpool’s squad is thinner as he is the 10th player released this summer. Before that, Liverpool had just sold Fabio Carvalho to Brentford.

Liverpool will still release a number of young players who are not included in the Arne Slot scheme, such as Sepp van den Berg, Kostas Tsimikas and Joe Gomez. Ironically, Liverpool is the English team that has not bought any players at all.

Liverpool were close to signing Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi, but it did not materialise. The Reds are now trying to move Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvilli.
