We should have sold him last summer when that Saudi club came in with their 150 Million offer and reinvested part of that on a striker.
Let's not double down on the mistake to hold onto him - especially now with Klopp also on his way out too and the opportunity for a clean slate for the new manager is presenting itself.
Anything above what we bought him for - even if it's less than 100 Mill - we should take and will be a good turnover and ROI.
He's a 31 year old who's going to be 32 in short order - has lost pace, is no longer as durable, is no longer as accurate or effecient - and those insisting we should keep him and that he has more to offer are just pining for the player he once was and that he'll never be again.
I'm sorry but that Mo of Klopp's first full year with us will never exist again.
He's been a great servant for the club,...blah blah blah blah....
Build him a statue and send him to greater riches and a great legacy and let's just move on to a new beginning.
Honestly if pressed, of the old gaurd (Klopp's original team that he built and not inherited), I'd keep only Virgil and Allisson.
Everyone else is fair game for a sale if it makes sense for the club.
And that includes local "heroes".
