Liverpool FC would earn
Taiwo Awoniyi (24) switched to Union Berlin as the most expensive purchase in the club’s history and could leave the “Iron” in 2022 as the most expensive sale – and Liverpool FC’s cash register would ring again. Noisy “Sky SportPremier League promoted Nottingham Forrest are interested in signing the Nigerian centre-forward, who is said to have a release clause of around €20m. “The Athletic“ confirms these figures and reports on negotiations between the clubs.

According to reports, ten percent of a possible fee will go to Awoniyi’s training club Liverpool, who sold him to Union in 2021 after seven loans for 6.5 million euros. “It’s a nice sum, I have to say. For us, that would be a departure into a whole new dimension,” commented Unions Sport Managing Director Oliver Ruhnert on “DAZN” in April rumors about the departure of his most valuable player. It’s an open secret that Awoniyi wants to prove himself on the island.

Union’s previous record sales are Robert Andrich (27, Bayer 04) and Sebastian Andersson (30, Cologne), who each switched for EUR 6.5 million. In the rumor mill, many Union fans already seem to be coming to terms with the goalscorer’s farewell.
TM user “fcu-ws” writes: “Either way, the departure would be just as painful in terms of sport as it would be financially lucrative. If you subtract the transfer fee used and the 10 percent resale share for Liverpool, the bottom line is net income of at least 11.5 million euros. That’s an unbelievable sum by our standards. But I don’t expect a complete reinvestment in a striker. I tend to think that the price is lower. After all, we are a club that generates revenue through the further development and increase in value of players. It has worked really well so far, thanks to Oliver Ruhnert!”
Nottingham can buy after promotion – Mainzer Niakhaté also in focus
Even as a promoter, Nottingham Forrest can work in completely different financial spheres than Europa League participants Union. After 23 years of Premier League abstinence, club boss Evangelos Marinakis is said to be making up to 115 million euros available for newcomers, according to the Times. As well as Awoniyi, Nottingham are also linked with Mainz centre-back and captain Moussa Niakhaté, 26, whose contract expires in 2023. “We are planning that Moussa goes,” said Mainz sports director Christian Heidel from the “Bildquoted.
