McManaman urges Liverpool to move for Borussia Dortmund striker Haaland

Liverpool hero Steve McManaman has urged his old club to move for Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland.

Haaland is set to become available for a modest £64m in the summer of 2022 due to a release clause in his contract coming into play.

And McManaman feels his former club Liverpool should immediately capitalise.

He told HorseRacing.net: "If Liverpool have the money then they're better off going for Haaland because he's already proven and it will be worth it in the long run.

"Some young players play well over a short period and then all of a sudden they're worth £50m, when their true value is £15m. It's the selling club trying to make as much as possible out of a player."
