‘Liverpool’s net spend should be admired - Man City spend four times the amount of money’

Simon Jordan has heaped praise on the way Liverpool is run and made some rather astute comparisons between them and their nearest rivals spending patterns.

It’s recently been confirmed that Liverpool have an agreement with Benfica to sign Darwin Nunez for an intital £64 million fee, with future add-ons potentially seeing that figure rise to £85 million.

The statement, which was released by Benfica, comes on the same day that Manchester City formally announced their signing of Erling Haaland.

The Citizens snatched the 21-year-old for the bargain price of £51 million, although his titanic wage of £375,000 per week will still see the deal work out more costly than Liverpool’s Nunez signing.

Nevertheless, Jurgen Klopp has come under fire for previous comments made six years ago in which he said that he would never sign a £100 million player.

“If you bring one player in for £100m and he gets injured, then it all goes through the chimney,” Klopp said at the time, per the Manchester Evening News.

“The day that this is football, I’m not in a job anymore, because the game is about playing together.

“That is how everybody in football understands it. You always want to have the best, but building the group is necessary to be successful.

“Other clubs can go out and spend more money and collect top players. I want to do it differently. I would even do it differently if I could spend that money.”

Now, Nunez isn’t being bought for quite the discussed amount in those quotes but the Uruguayan could still potentially become Liverpool’s record signing.

However, whilst people have been critical of the German, Simon Jordan offered a different opinion.
