Liverpool Midfielder Completes Transfer as £145m Mark Reached - Liverpool Echo

RHÔNE, AUVERGNE-RHÔNE-ALPES, AUG 5 – Tyler Morton leaves Liverpool after limited first-team chances with a £15 million move to Lyon, boosting Liverpool's summer transfer income to nearly £145 million.

  • Tyler Morton, a 22-year-old England under-21 midfielder, has completed his permanent transfer from Liverpool to Lyon in a deal announced on Tuesday.
  • Liverpool agreed to sell Morton for a £15 million fee after he made 14 senior appearances but failed to secure a regular first-team place over recent seasons.
  • Morton broke into Liverpool's first team in September 2021 and spent two successful loan spells at Blackburn and Hull before moving to Lyon, who avoided recent relegation on appeal.
  • Liverpool's summer sales, including Morton's £15 million transfer with a 20% sell-on clause, have raised nearly £150 million, marking significant squad turnover under coach Arne Slot.
  • Morton's transfer to Lyon offers him potential regular playing time and European competition exposure, while Liverpool retains financial interest through the sell-on clause.
