Liverpool continue to do good business this summer and are slowly raising finances.

The Reds have received a lot of plaudits in the transfer window for the number of quality players they have brought in, but their outgoings have gone somewhat under the radar.

Richard Hughes has made some genius moves and sold six players for just under £150m, with the latest being Tyler Morton who has been sold to Lyon.

The 22-year-old had an exceptional Under 21 European Championships that proved why he is ready for first-team football, although Liverpool could not offer him that.

There are many reasons for this and it is not just because the Reds have Ryan Gravenberch in his position, with the reason he left partially being because of another player currently at the club.

Liverpool’s midfield is packed with top talent and finding a space within it is near-impossible, although there are plenty of players still trying to do just that.

Morton, however, seems to believe that it might just never happen for him, hence why he has made the brave step of playing his football abroad.

And, despite his quality being clear for all to see, according to journalist Dominic King, Liverpool were content to let him go as they believe Stefan Bajcetic is a player who shares similarities with the Englishman.

The Spaniard has been a well-known figure around Anfield for a long time despite being just 20 and was branded ‘exceptional’ by Jurgen Klopp, although injuries have halted his progress.

Due to Bajcetic’s absence, as well as going out on loan, Morton was the one who looked more likely to get a chance with the first-team, although King’s report suggests it is now Bajcetic who could have a role to play next season.

If that is the case, it is understandable as to why the Englishman was allowed to leave as they only need one of them, and if a club is willing to pay £15m for him, it seems a no-brainer to accept.

Morton’s departure also has knock-on effects for others within the squad, with 18-year-old Trey Nyoni benefiting significantly.

After shining in pre-season, the Englishman is now considered a full-time member of the first-team set-up according to journalist Paul Joyce.
