Burnley in talks to sign Liverpool’s Harry Wilson

Liverpool are in discussions with Burnley over the sale of winger Harry Wilson, according to two reliable journalists.

Both Nick Mashiter and James Pearce have reported that talks are taking place as Jurgen Klopp begins to trim his squad.

Following the arrival of Diogo Jota from Wolves and Thiago Alcantara last weekend, it was always likely outgoings may follow at Liverpool and Wilson could be the first to move on.

The 23-year-old Welshman has spent the last two seasons on loan away from Anfield, enjoying mixed successes with Derby County and AFC Bournemouth.

Despite his undoubted talent, Wilson never came close to breaking into the first-team squad at Anfield and the time is probably right for the left-footer to move on.

Since joining the club as an Under-9, Wilson has made just one appearance for the Reds, against Plymouth in the FA Cup in 2017.

No official word on the fee involved in the deal, although it is likely to range from around £15m, a switch would end the winger’s 14-year association with the Reds.

The Wales international could be the first of many departures in the coming weeks, with Marko Grujic and Loris Karius most likely to be sold.
