that Braga, Ajax and Club Brugge are also interested, making all four teams possible destinations for the 22-year-old.<\/p>\n<p>Bayer Leverkusen tried to sign Morton on loan last summer, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rousingthekop.com\/club\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Liverpool<\/a> were only prepared to sell him in a permanent transfer worth around \u00a320million.<\/p>\n<p>The midfielder only played five times for the Reds last season as injury ruled him out for the majority of the season, but it appears his time at Liverpool has now run its course.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rousingthekop.com\/2024\/09\/28\/neil-mellor-says-liverpool-have-a-youngster-who-is-far-too-good-to-be-playing-in-the-u21s-this-season\/\" rel=\"nofollow

<\/p>\n<p>It is the right time for Tyler Morton to move on<\/p>\n<p>There is no denying that Morton is a quality player and he showed that during his time at the Under 21 European Championships, but he is not quite at the level to make it into the team just yet.<\/p>\n<p>Ryan Gravenberch will hold down the defensive midfield role for many years to come, while Wataru Endo is a more than adequate back-up option to help the Dutchman manage his minutes.<\/p>\n<p><a

McConnell appears to be third-choice<\/a> as well after a meeting with Slot, suggesting Morton is far down in the pecking order, while also capable of being sold for big money.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a320m seems quite steep for a player hardly proven but his performance at the Euros, as well as being called <a
