Leeds United and West Ham United have been informed that Liverpool's asking price for winger Ben Doak is £20 million, according to reports from Football Insider. Liverpool are open to selling the 18-year-old Scottish player at this valuation, but it remains to be seen whether Leeds and West Ham will meet this price this transfer window.
Ben Doak has attracted attention from multiple clubs following his promising loan spell at Middlesbrough during the 2024/25 season, where he scored three goals and provided seven assists in 24 appearances. His strong performances have increased his market value and interest among potential buyers, including the Premier League sides Leeds, West Ham, as well as Monaco and Bologna.
Liverpool value Doak highly due to his potential and progression, so £20 million is considered a fair price for a player of his caliber and age. Leeds, in particular, are reportedly keen on signing him to bolster their attacking options, but no official bid has yet been submitted. Liverpool manager Arne Slot is willing to keep Doak as a squad player if a satisfactory offer does not arrive.
This transfer saga is evolving as clubs evaluate the £20 million asking price and weigh Doak’s long-term potential against their immediate squad needs. Whether Leeds or West Ham capitalize on this opportunity remains to be seen as the summer window progresses.
