The Reds have been locked in talks with their Premier League counterparts for several days after making their initial approach last week.
The two clubs have been haggling over the valuation of the 20-year-old, who will undergo a medical with the Merseyside giants on Wednesday.
Is this how the 'great' Comolli does business? £20m for a kid who had one decent season in the EPL? Maybe next up is Carlton Cole for £30m, while other clubs are looking to get world-class players like Sanchez, Coentrao, Hazard, etc for relatively the same amount or even less.
I know FSG are new to this sport but - REALLY? They talked about "moneyball" and investing wisely, but DAMN. If £35m for Carroll and £20m for Henderson is their idea of "value for money" then I wonder what they consider "splurging".
You can't overpay for a bunch of average players and then expect to challenge for top 4. Not when rival clubs get all the top quality players for the same amount.
i think its more like 16mil and 4mil for ngog, so its not all bad atleast they got rid of an average player. tbf comolli does make some good signings, he did it for spurs bale, modric, vdv, sandro so he's no mug when it comes to tranfers.
He is actually a very good buy remember his performance against Chelsea were he dominated midfield he is very talented if he was more consistent he will become a top class midfield player
