Liverpool Rejects £15m Bid for Ben Doak

Liverpool has rejected a £15 million bid from Crystal Palace for 19-year-old winger Ben Doak, who is currently on loan at Middlesbrough. Doak has impressed in the Championship, scoring two goals and providing five assists across 20 appearances, leading to interest from several clubs. Liverpool values Doak at around £25 million, aligning with recent transfer fees for young attackers, and is not willing to entertain offers below this amount. Although Palace is keen on securing Doak, they must significantly improve their offer to have any chance of a deal. Doak, who joined Liverpool from Celtic in 2022, has yet to establish himself at Anfield due to competition and a prior injury but is viewed as a promising talent for the future. Liverpool is content to let Doak continue his development at Middlesbrough if their valuation isn't met.
