Fabrizio Romano expects Liverpool to break the bank for 22-year-old star

Fabrizio Romano expects Liverpool to break the bank for 22-year-old star

When it comes to recruitment, there aren’t many teams in world football better at it, than Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool.

The Reds have a notoriously shrewd business model that sees heavy emphasis placed on identifying players perfect for the team’s style of play.

“Millie will be fine after his career, but he obviously loves what he is doing.

“He will play football next year definitely.”
