Jurgen Klopp prevents Harry Wilson loan move

Liverpool will not allow Harry Wilson to go out on loan this season, the Liverpool Echo has claimed.

Wilson, 23, has made three different loan moves over the last three years, with the latter two at Derby and Bournemouth being extremely productive.

In fact, Wilson managed seven goals in 35 appearances for Bournemouth last season and that has sparked plenty of interest in the midfielder.

Newcastle, Leeds and Southampton are all believed to have contacted Liverpool about a deal for Wilson.

However, any transfer for Wilson this season will have to be a permanent one after Liverpool decided Wilson will not be leaving on loan again.

The Echo report that the club are unequivocal, and that Wilson will not be leaving on loan.

“Put up or shut up is essentially the message for any interested parties, say Anfield sources,” according to the local paper.

The asking price had been mooted at £20 million in a previous report by the Daily Mirror, and the report concurs with that asking price.

With the financial impact of Covid-19 restricting the club’s transfer budget, Jurgen Klopp and Michael Edwards see “little value in loaning out their fringe stars”.

With that in mind Klopp is apparently more than happy to use Wilson in a season which kicks off on 12 September and concludes on 23 May.
