Liverpool have been urged to sign Mason Mount and Declan Rice instead of spending an exorbitant amount of money on Jude Bellingham.
Danny Murphy believes signing both Mount and Rice will cost the Reds less than Bellingham and would be a more realistic move for the Merseysiders.
Danny Murphy:
"Signing Bellingham, would seem illogical really. It’s not how they tend to do things really; go out and buy a superstar for over £100 million, They’ve got to improve and got to try and bring in better than they’ve got."
"I would prefer to see two or three come in for the price of one, if the ‘one’ is going to cost £120 – £130 million. There are lots of terrific players. And if your recruitment is good – if you know what you need and want – you can go and get it."
"If you’re talking £130 million, could you get Mason Mount and Declan Rice for that? Two for the price of one? I think you’d get them two for £100 – £120 million."
Murphy added:
“I’m not saying Rice or Mount is better than Bellingham. But you’ve got two players who play different roles, and you’ve spent the same money.”
