Liverpool star to seek shock permanent transfer away from Anfield as £10m price tag puts clubs on red alert

Liverpool will reportedly want £10m for defender Neco Williams, who is said to be looking to leave Anfield permanently this summer.

The news comes as something as a shock given just last year he signed a five-year deal with the Merseyside outfit and is believed to be thought of incredibly highly at the club.

He has served as a more-than-capable understudy to Trent Alexander-Arnold since making his debut back in 2019, however it was thought that he would seek a loan move away next term in order to gain some regular game time.

Both Cardiff City and Swansea City have been linked with a loan move for the Wales international wing back, while the Liverpool Echo has claimed Southampton, Leeds United, Aston Villa and Burnley have all made enquiries over a loan deal.

However, the Echo now claim that the 20-year-old wants to be playing week in, week out at the top level and will seek a permanent transfer away from the club following his exploits with Wales at Euro 2020.

They report that Liverpool would be willing to listen to offers in excess of £10m.

Williams has made 25 appearances for the club.
