Multiple clubs alerted as Liverpool consider Harry Wilson’s future

Liverpool winger Harry Wilson could be on the summer wish list of multiple Premier League clubs, according to a report from Wales Online.

The report follows The Athletic’s claim that the Reds could sanction a summer clearout in order to raise funds for their own summer targets whilst trimming the squad.

Wilson, a Wales international who is currently on loan at Championship side Cardiff City, could be targeted by the likes of Aston Villa, Leeds United and Burnley, with the latter making a late bid to sign the 23-year-old last summer.

Capable of playing on either wing and in a central attacking role, Wilson has enjoyed a strong season in south Wales, contributing three goals and seven assists in 20 appearances.

However, those numbers are down on another Reds loanee in Harvey Elliott, who at just 17 has been sensational in the Championship for Blackburn this season.

Truthfully, Wilson has never looked like becoming a first team regular at Anfield. Despite being on the periphery of Jurgen Klopp’s plans on occasion, the Welshman has always faced an uphill battle to oust Mohamed Salah to obtain his favoured right-sided position.

Valued at £12.6m by Transfermarkt, selling the left-footer in the summer could generate a nice boost to the coffers for Klopp as he looks to potentially build again after a season of relative upheaval.

Clutching at straws perhaps, but sales of four or five of the fringe players at Liverpool could surmount to roughly £70m in funds raised – money which, reinvested properly, could provide valuable new options for the Reds next term.
