Werner links cool down with Leipzig potentially refusing to sell and Ferran Torres links emerge? Hmmm

Another Torres!!!!! Suiiiiiiiiiiiiii

The 20-year-old right-winger is currently valued at £45 million, making him the most valuable player at Valencia according to Transfermarkt. In 35 appearances for the Spanish club in all competitions so far this season, Torres has managed to score six goals and provide seven assists, whilst playing in numerous positions on the pitch (per Transfermarkt). Now that Torres has been linked with a move to Liverpool, this has opened the door for lots of Reds fans to have their say on the potential move.
Cheap alternative FC

He has an insane release clause

How reliable is the notion that His release clause of €100 Million becomes void as soon as 6 months left to run on contract?

What do we think?
It appears that some Liverpool fans are a bit sceptical over the move for Torres. With such a high market valuation at 20 years old, any potential transfer fee would likely be a large sum of money to take him away from Valencia.
