Liverpool has had mixed success when it comes to selling their star players. While they have occasionally missed the mark by letting big names run down their contracts, they have also made savvy decisions to cash in at the right time.

One notable example is the sale of the former Inter Milan star, which brought the club a record fee and an impressive return on investment. This allowed them to bring in Virgil van Dijk to Anfield.

Additionally, the departure of a former skipper last summer, despite not yielding a huge fee, has proven to be a smart move as it has allowed for the development of a new-look midfield. The funds from these sales have facilitated the acquisition of new recruits, with the departure of Brewster to Sheffield United being particularly successful.

Despite initially impressing on loan at Swansea, Brewster has struggled to find his footing at his new club. In contrast, Liverpool has continued to perform strongly in the Premier League.
