Liverpool: Fans call for Ben Woodburn to be sold amid reports of another possible loan move
Liverpool are reportedly considering another loan move away from Anfield for Ben Woodburn – although many Reds fans believe that his next exit should be a permanent one.
Goal.com journalist Neil Jones reported that the Reds are seeking another loan move for the 20-year-old, with Ipswich and Portsmouth and some Eredivisie clubs reportedly interested in the Wales international. The news was later shared on Twitter by @AnfieldEdition.
Ben Woodburn will be loaned again, with Ipswich and Portsmouth looking to take him back to League One, while there is also interest from the Eredivisie.
Kamil Grabara will be loaned out too, with Hamburg and PAOK keeping tabs. [@neiljonesgoal]

Woodburn became the club’s youngest-ever scorer when he netted in an EFL Cup game against Leeds in November 2016 and has already won 10 caps for Wales, scoring twice for his country.
However, he has made just 11 senior appearances for Liverpool, the last of which came in 2017/18, and has since been loaned out to Sheffield United and Oxford. He played just eight times in an injury-hit spell at Bramall Lane and also suffered two separate foot breaks during his time with the U’s last season.
While his career has stalled, Curtis Jones has emerged from the academy to break into the senior side and claim a Premier League winner’s medal, while fellow midfielder Marko Grujic has played regularly in the Bundesliga on loan at Hertha Berlin over the past two seasons.
What should Liverpool do with Ben Woodburn?
Keep
Loan
Sell
These Liverpool fans think that it is time for the club to jettison Woodburn for good and cannot see a route into the first team for him:
Just sell them at this point https://t.co/zsWFUiwAoz

Woodburn should be sold he’s never making it with us

We should try and sell. He’s wasting his own time not pushing a move. Curtis Jones and Grujic are miles better and he isn’t getting past either. He might develop into a good player but he should probably move on to achieve that.
