A journalist expresses shock at the possibility of Liverpool signing a £40m player in the near future.
Jones believes Gray’s agent may be using Liverpool to promote his client’s name, stating he would be amazed if Liverpool spent £40m on an unproven player.
Liverpool are unlikely to spend £40m on 17-year-old Gray, according to former Liverpool player, Jon Jones. Jones believes the fee is too high, and he believes the Reds are not averse to signing top young players from the Championship, but they usually do these deals on the cheap. Gray is a good player, but the £40m for a teenager with only a few senior appearances is ridiculous.
