Liverpool<\/a> are about to pass the \u00a3200m mark in player sales this summer with teenage winger Ben Doak set to complete a move to Bournemouth<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It is understood that the 19-year-old is on the verge of finalising his transfer to the south coast<\/a> in a \u00a325m deal.<\/p>\n

Doak, signed from Celtic in 2022 for \u00a3600,000, has made 10 appearances for Liverpool in his first two years and spent the whole of the last campaign on loan at Championship side Middlesbrough, where he scored three goals in 24 games.<\/a><\/p>\n

Ben Doak impressed with Middlesbrough last season (PA)<\/p>\n

He follows Luis Diaz<\/a>, Darwin Nunez<\/a>, Trent Alexander-Arnold<\/a>, Caoimhin Kelleher<\/a> and Jarell Quansah<\/a> out of the club this summer, with the income from those sales going a long way to offset a transfer spend in excess of \u00a3300m.<\/p>\n

That figure could go higher with Liverpool still retaining an interest in Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi<\/a> and Newcastle striker Alexander Isak<\/a>, which would cost them at least another \u00a3150m.<\/p>\n

However, there are likely to be more departures from Anfield with Kostas Tsimikas<\/a> \u2013 now third-choice left-back after the arrival of Milos Kerkez and not in the squad for Friday\u2019s win over Bournemouth<\/a> \u2013 linked with Nottingham Forest.<\/p>\n

Midfielder Harvey Elliott<\/a> remains in talks with RB Leipzig, who are likely to make a formal move once Chelsea target Xavi Simons\u2019s future is decided.<\/p>\n

West Ham were understood to also be interested in the England Under-21 international but the Bundesliga is currently the most attractive option for him.<\/p>\n
