Official LIVE: break the bank! Liverpool Demand £30m for Star Winger After Snubbing Cut-Price Offers from Crystal Palace and Ipswich Town!” Kieran McKenna town already in the front run with a new packaged bid” here’s the full deal structure…
Liverpool have set a £30 million valuation on their 19-year-old winger, Ben Doak, following rejected bids from Crystal Palace and Ipswich Town. Currently on loan at Middlesbrough, Doak has impressed with two goals and five assists in 20 Championship appearances, contributing significantly to their promotion ambitions.
Crystal Palace initiated the interest with a £15 million bid, swiftly followed by Ipswich Town’s £16 million offer; both were declined by Liverpool, who are keen to retain the Scottish international. The club views Doak as a promising talent with potential to impact the first team upon his return.
Liverpool’s valuation is influenced by recent market trends, including Crysencio Summerville’s £25 million transfer to West Ham United and Wilson Odobert’s £30 million move to Tottenham Hotspur. Consequently, they have set Doak’s price at £30 million, reflecting his perceived value and potential.
Middlesbrough, benefiting from Doak’s contributions, are eager to retain him for the remainder of the season to bolster their promotion campaign. Liverpool’s management shares this sentiment, preferring to keep Doak on loan to aid his development before reintegrating him into their squad.
As the January transfer window progresses, it remains to be seen whether Crystal Palace, Ipswich Town, or other interested parties will meet Liverpool’s £30 million asking price for the talented winger.
