Harvey Elliott

[Rjk]

moved from Fulham to Liverpool when he was 16, going to tribunal now for the fee.
Fulham wanted 10 million, Liverpool argue the fee should have been 750k.

it'll be interesting to see what the tribunal sets it as, as both of those figures seem ridiculous to me.

[Pedro de la Rosa]

Ampadu went to Chelsea for 1.5m rising to 2.5m. Chelsea had previously offered 3m up front. They're absolutely farcical.

Fulham should get a lot closer to 10m than 750k! Bellingham went for 30!

[life on mars]

Scandalous and these affluent clubs talk about grassroots investments for the future of the game all bull shit ,someone needs to challenge them in an outside civil court of law , bloody tribunals

[Rjk]

he looks like he's going to be a top player too, I suppose the tribunal has to try to value him at the point he moved though

Not sure I understand the previous push for protected premier league status when arguing you should be able to pick up smaller clubs' best talent for 750k builds to that eventuality anyway.

[City123]

These tribunals are a joke, just letting the big clubs bully the smaller clubs to give up their talent for nothing. Elliott made his debut for Fulham at 15, had played league football and scored for England Under 17s before joining Liverpool. He's now showing his talent in the Championship for Blackburn Rovers. £750,000 is a disgrace.

Put another way, Liverpool wanted £20m for Harry Wilson in the summer, at 17 Elliott has performed as well as Wilson in the same division, surely if Wilson is worth £20m, Elliott should be as well? Elliott has only spent a season at Liverpool so there's no way they've turned him from a player worth less than a million into one worth £20m in a year

[Rjk]

Liverpool ended up having to pay 1.2 m, which could rise to 4.3 million with appearances and Fulham retain a 20% sell on fee

could have been worse for Fulham, but lets be honest its still way way too cheap, even at the top end, 4.3 mill buys you nothing these days

Agreed.

If he plays 100 games for Liverpool and plays for England while playing for Liverpool. Liverpool have got an absolute bargain.
