Slott attacked with an iron fist! Cleaning up 6 people for more than 2.100 million is not enough, there are still 80 million, Isaac is happy

If you want to rank which three teams are the most successful in the Premier League in the past decade, it will be the Reds Liverpool, Blue Moon Manchester City and Blues Chelsea. However, if we look at the investment of recruitment funds, it is Liverpool. Their spending and salary structure are completely incomparable to the first two. There are countless "blood loss cases" between Manchester City and Chelsea. On the other hand, the Reds led the team again to beat the Red Devils and Manchester United with just two Klopp and Slot, becoming the most successful club in Premier League history. Uncle Slag is the only Grand Slam coach in the team history. However, Slot coached the team in his first season and won the Premier League championship four rounds ahead of schedule, which made the senior Reds' senior management firmly believe that he will definitely lead the team to the height of Uncle Slag, and even surpass it.

So in this summer's transfer market, he "crazy" supported Slot's signing and strengthening. He has signed superstars such as Wilz, Ekitic, Korkoz, Flynnon, Leoni, etc., and the cost has exceeded 334 million euros, but it is still not enough. Isaac, who is worth more than 100 million pounds, is also one of the must-sign players. Although the bald coach spends a lot of money, his cleaning work is also an iron fist. The transfer income of the 6 players sold so far has exceeded 210 million euros, and it is far from enough. If the cleaning plan goes smoothly, there will be 80 million euros. In this way, Newcastle's number one star 100 million pounds is really not expensive for the Reds.

First, the two main players Dias and Nunes left the team one after another. They brought 130 million euros to the Red Army, and then the four youth training substitutes, bringing 83 million euros in real money and silver. Slot is really a carefully calculated coach.

1, Kanssa (35 million euros)

22-year-old Kanssa is a central defender produced by Liverpool's youth training and is known as "Mini Van Dijk". In the 2023-24 season, Klopp once reused him, making 33 appearances in various competitions, contributing 3 goals and 3 assists. But as the season deepened, his instability on the defensive end gradually emerged and his mistakes were frequent, resulting in his rapid fall behind after Slot took office and gradually losing his main position.

However, in the England U21 national team, Kanssa is the starting core of the game and helped the team win the European Youth Championship. With his potential and growth space, he is still very popular in the transfer market. In the end, Leverkusen took action and won the new star with a fixed £30 million + 5 million floating rate. Liverpool also cleverly added a €60 million buyback clause, which not only cashed out but also retained possible room for maneuver in the future.

2. Ben Dock (23.2 million euros)

The 19-year-old Scottish demon Ben Dock is an offensive star that Liverpool has focused on in recent years. With a fast speed and sharp breakthrough, he joined the Reds from the Celtic youth team in 2022. He was loaned to Middlesbrough last season, and made 10 goals in 24 appearances, with outstanding performance.

His potential has attracted the attention of many Premier League clubs. In the end, Bournemouth signed the wing star with £20 million + 5 million floating. Liverpool left a buyback clause, and once the talent is realized in the future, the Reds can still bring him back to Anfield.

3, Kellech (14.8 million euros)

Liverpool's substitute goalkeeper Kellech is the team's loyal "No. 2 goalkeeper". Since joining the first team in 2019, he has made 67 appearances and contributed 24 clean sheets. Although he was suppressed by Alisson for a long time, Kellech's stable performance in the cup and even saviors many times made fans remember this Irish goalkeeper with rapid reactions and strong goal line ability.

In the national team, Kellech is a starter who has played 23 times for Ireland. This summer, with the joining of new player Mamaldashvili, his chances at Liverpool have been further reduced. In the end, he chose to transfer to Brentford, with a transfer fee of 14.8 million euros. Considering that he only has one year left in the contract, this price is a stable profit.

4. Morton (10 million euros)

22-year-old Morton is also from Liverpool youth training and is a technical midfielder. In the past two seasons, he has played a total of 97 games with Hull City in the Championship, contributing 3 goals and 9 assists, demonstrating solid midfield organization skills.

After returning to Liverpool, he only won five substitutes due to injuries and competition. But in the England U21 national team, he is still in a stable rotation. This summer, Ligue 1 Lyon will include it in the plan and will eventually sign it for 10 million euros fixed + 5 million floating, with a 20% second transfer share. Although Liverpool has released the players, it still leaves a profit guarantee for the future.

In this way, the total income of selling six people was as high as 213 million euros, the recruitment cost 334 million euros, and the net expenditure was only 1.21 euros. Such expenditure was only equal to the new team Leeds United. However, Slot's cleaning work is still going on, and Liverpool also sold 28-year-old Nat Phillips to West Brom, with an income of 3.5 million euros. Elliott, Baychetic, Zimikas and others may still be sold in the team, and it is expected to bring about 80 million euros in revenue. In this way, even if the Reds pursue heavyweight striker like Isaac, there will be a few "money" in the entire summer window, but the overall strength of the team has increased by more than one level. Slott's Reds have the courage to buy big and business wisdom. This is the real temperament of the champion team. I wonder what the arch-rival Manchester United feels!
