Ben Doak, on loan last season at Middlesbrough, has completed a move to Bournemouth
Liverpool winger - but only after the Reds were handed a buyback clause. The champions were not willing to sell Doak unless this was included.
The international has sealed a £25million move to join Andoni Iraola's men, taking 's total sales this summer to a whopping £206m - a figure that could potentially reach £227m. Liverpool have already sold Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez, and Jarell Quansah this summer, while they also got £8m from to allow leave a month before the end of his contract.
A Liverpool statement confirmed: "Liverpool FC can confirm Ben Doak has completed a permanent transfer to AFC . Everyone at the club wishes Ben well for the future.'
Doak, 19, signed from Celtic in 2022 for just £600,000 and spent last season on loan at Middlesbrough. He made just 10 first-team appearances for the Reds.
This summer and Leeds also registered interest in him, with a bid from Portuguese outfit Porto.
The huge sales are helping to offset the club's huge summer spend in excess of £300m. That will get even higher before the window closes with Marc Guehi wanted from and the club still trying to sign striker Alexander Isak.
There will be more departures too, notably Kostas Tsimikas - now third-choice left-back after the arrival of Milos Kerkez - who is wanted by Nottingham Forest and midfielder Harvey Elliott. RB Leipzig have made him their No.1 target to replace Xavi Simons, once his future is decided. are pushing hard to sign the Dutch international.
