Liverpool Sign Jonjo Shelvey
A day after I said there is no way Charlton would sell Jonjo Shelvey for 4 million considering the money Leeds got for Fabian Delph they go and sell him to Liverpool for an initial £1.7 million and depending on who you believe could wise up to £3 million depending on performances. Which goes to show you why Charlton are currently in League One.
This really is a no risk deal here for Liverpool with a lot of upside if Shelvey is able to make a mark in the top flight. Considering the fee Liverpool paid for him they won’t have to rush Shelvey into the lineup right away, instead he can get his feet wet next year and hopefully improve as the year goes on.
All and all a great pick up by Liverpool and very smart of them to wrap this transfer up before the end of the season.
