Lyon signs midfielder Tyler Morton from Liverpool in $17M deal
LYON, France (AP) — Liverpool sent homegrown midfielder Tyler Morton to French club Lyon for a transfer fee of up to 15 million euros ($17 million) on Tuesday. The 22-year-old Morton signed a five-year contract with Lyon, which confirmed it paid a fee of 10 million euros with potential bonuses of 5 million euros. Morton, who joined Liverpool's youth system at age 7, made only five appearances last season for the Premier League champions. His first-team debut came in 2021 before loans to Blackburn and Hull. Morton helped England win the Under-21 European Championship last month. Liverpool has been a big spender this summer — the recent signing of Hugo Ekitiké took its outlay to around $342 million. So, taking in some fees will be helpful for financial sustainability rules. Jarell Quansah's move to Bayer Leverkusen will bring Liverpool up to $47 million. Lyon had been relegated because of financial problems but the club won its appeal and will remain in Ligue 1 next season.
