# Virals: Liverpool set to hand EFL strugglers £100,000 windfall

[Liverpool](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2021/09/20/danny-mills-insists-liverpool-can-cope-without-harvey-elliott/) look set to hand Championship strugglers Derby County a much needed financial boost this week.

The Rams have recently [entered voluntary administration](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11696/12410843/derby-county-set-to-enter-administration-and-face-12-point-penalty-amid-ongoing-financial-problems-at-club) and look set to be handed a points penalty in the second tier.

Having sold talented teenager, [Kaide Gordon](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2021/08/12/virals-trent-alexander-arnold-tips-frightening-kaide-gordon-for-success/), to the Reds in February for an initial £1million fee, the 16-year-old looks in line to make a senior debut this evening (Tuesday, September 21).

According to a report from [The Telegraph](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2021/09/20/derby-county-receive-100k-cash-boost-kaide-gordon-makes-liverpool/), as cited by [Anfield Watch Academy](https://twitter.com/AcadWatch/status/1439968818927964167) on Twitter, the Anfield club will pay a £100,000 clause upon making a first-team bow.

Various incentives could see the [overall value of the transfer](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/liverpool-set-100000-payout-kaide-21625598) rise to £3million over time.

Jurgen Klopp looks set to name a [much-changed side](https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/first-team/443999-carabao-cup-team-news-norwich-city) for the second trip to Carrow Road to face Norwich City this season.

Assistant manager Pep Lijnders was on duty for the [pre-match press conference](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/kaide-gordon-liverpool-jurgen-klopp-21619726) and confirmed a host of alterations whilst also praising Gordon’s ‘natural ability’ as a winger.

Following an impressive pre-season campaign, Gordon has [scored twice and provided one assist](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/kaide-gordon/leistungsdaten/spieler/732119) in the opening three Premier League 2 outings.

[Capped at Under 16 level](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/kaide-gordon/nationalmannschaft/spieler/732119/verein_id/31269) by England, the starlet has yet another opportunity to impress at the next level up against top-tier opposition.
