Reds agree deal to sell Andre Wisdom to Championship promotion contenders

Posted by

Liverpool have agreed a deal that will see Andre Wisdom seal a permanent summer return to Championship promotion hopefuls Derby County.

The news was announced by the official club website on Friday with both clubs having been in talks over a deal for days prior to the agreement.

Deciding on a fee had emerged as the main factor but it now seems Liverpool will receive around £2million as well as possible add-ons.

Though Wisdom is yet to have his medical, everything is in place to take the 24-year-old back to the club he enjoyed a standout loan spell with during the 2013/2014 campaign, in which he made 38 appearances under Steve McClaren.

Wisdom has since spent time at West Brom, Norwich City and Red Bull Salzburg- winning the Austrian Bundesliga with the latter.

The defender progressed through Liverpool’s youth setup following his move from Bradford in 2008 and eventually made 22 appearances for the club. Apparent potential for him to develop into a first team regular failed to materialise as many expected it would, but he now has a valuable opportunity to play in a team seemingly destined to return to the Premier League and one that has continued to come close to doing so over the past few years.

Good luck, Andre.
