# Virals: Liverpool ‘ask’ for £30million transfer fee to sell Joe Gomez

[Liverpool](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2022/03/01/pundit-tips-caoimhin-kelleher-to-save-liverpool-millions-in-the-future/) will reportedly ‘ask’ for £30million in order to sell central defender [Joe Gomez](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2022/02/24/pundit-claims-liverpool-defender-joe-gomez-needs-to-leave/).

The 24-year-old has been linked with a move away from Anfield having [fallen down the pecking order](https://www.sofascore.com/player/joe-gomez/318927) this season.

Newcastle United and Aston Villa have both been [touted as suitors](https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/aston-villa-transfer-news-coutinho-23234289) for the Englishman but Real Madrid are also believed to be keen.

According to a report from [ElNacional](https://www.elnacional.cat/es/deportes/bin-salman-no-hara-negocios-florentino-perez-ofrece-30-millones-liverpool_717756_102.html), the Reds have set their price for Gomez.

The report claims that Newcastle would be ‘willing to pay’ the fee for the [11-cap](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/joe-gomez/nationalmannschaft/spieler/256178/verein_id/3299) England international who ‘wants to leave’ Liverpool.

That’s all despite a recent report from [The Athletic](https://theathletic.com/3140743/2022/02/22/whats-next-for-joe-gomez/) claiming that the club has no desire to sell the centre-back.

So far this season Gomez has made [13 appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/joe-gomez/leistungsdaten/spieler/256178) across all competitions – albeit the Englishman has missed out on recent matchday squads.

### READ LIVERPOOL VERDICT

Valued at £22.5million and under contract until 2024 ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/joe-gomez/marktwertverlauf/spieler/256178)), the former Charlton starlet certainly still has a huge future on Merseyside.

Seemingly taking more time to [fully recover from injury](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/virgil-van-dijk-joel-matip-23199716) than the likes of Virgil van Dijk and Joel Matip, Gomez has also found himself behind Ibrahima Konate.

However, already a [167 appearance professional](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/joe-gomez/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/256178) and a one-time favoured partner alongside Van Dijk, it’s far too soon to write off such a talent.
