Liverpool could sell winger Ryan Kent in the summer transfer window with Fulham hotly pursuing the goal scoring winger according to reports.

The Reds are set to make some money this summer with a host of outgoing transfers. One name likely to leave Anfield is Ryan Kent who is wanted by Premier League club Fulham. A transfer fee of around £7 million is expected.

The winger is currently on-loan at Glasgow Rangers under ex-Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard. It is thought the Scottish giants would like to make the deal permanent but it may fall out of their price range if interest from a Premier League club materializes.

He has had a decent season at Ibrox, grabbing five goals in the Scottish Premiership. He needed a boost after two disappointing loan spells last season at SC Frieburg and Bristol City wasted a valuable year of his career.

The 22-year-old has yet to make a senior appearance for the Reds. At his age, and without any substantial progress, it seems highly likely that Jurgen Klopp will cash in on the winger.

A recent story indicates that Liverpool will not break the bank for record-breaking transfers in the summer and so will use funds from squad sales to help fund a move for a new attacker such as Callum Hudson-Odoi of Chelsea or Julian Brandt of Bayer Leverkusen

Kent will likely join Divock Origi as departures from Anfield to help fund other moves. There will be a couple of free transfer exits with Daniel Sturridge set leave and Alberto Moreno lining up a move back to Spain.

Harry Wilson is the one loanee from this season who is expected to return and challenge for a first team role. However Marko Grujic is also making waves in Germany and could be given a chance in the pre-season to earn a place in next year’s Premier League squad.
