Youngster will head to Bristol for £2.5m
Liverpool will let younster Sergi Canos leave for Bristol this summer for £2.5million.
Canos made his first team debut for the club on the final day of last season against West Bromwich Albion, coming on as a late substitute.
It was reward for the 19-year-old’s impressive displays on loan at Brentford throughout the 2015-16 campaign.
However, Canos and his representatives have failed to reach an agreement over a new contract, with wage demands of £10,000-a-week believed to be a considerable sticking point.
A deal of that value would put him on better terms than other Academy graduates who have signed new deals with the Reds recently.
After making his Liverpool debut, he hailed it as ‘the best 10 minutes’ of his life.
Speaking after his Reds debut at The Hawthorns, Canos said: “When people say dreams come true, they are right. Today one of my dreams came true.
“I’ve had hunger from the first day I came to Liverpool three years ago. I hope I’ll be able to train with the senior squad more in future and show the manager that I can play for Liverpool.
“My family told me it’s sad the season is finishing. It’s been the best season of my life.
“I made my debut in the Championship, I scored my first professional goal and now I’ve made my debut for Liverpool. I am really happy.
“I’ll be back for pre-season and ready to go 200%.”
