Liverpool accept Lazio bid for Luis Alberto

Liverpool are set to sell Luis Alberto to Lazio.

Sky Sports reports that the Reds have accepted a £6million bid from the Italian club for the Spanish attacking midfielder.

Alberto, 23, has struggled to force his way in at Anfield since arriving from Sevilla in 2013 and has subsequently spent time on loan with Malaga and Deportivo La Coruña over the past two seasons.

It is understood that an up front payment of £4.3m will be made by Lazio with Liverpool to receive a further £1.7m from add-ons and bonuses. A 30% sell-on clause has been inserted into the contract.
