Liverpool’s sale of Jordan Ibe could prove to be very good news for Wycombe Wanderers

Jordan Ibe, the man who was once pegged as the next Raheem Sterling, has been sold by Liverpool.

Bournemouth have snapped up the England Under-21 international on a four-year contract for a reported club record fee of £15m. The 20-year-old agreed personal terms before completing a medical on Wednesday. He is set to join up with his new Bournemouth teammates stateside on their preseason tour of Minnesota and Chicago. The 20-year-old struggled to cement a place in the Reds' first team, but finished his stint at Anfield on a high note, scoring in their final game of the 2015/16 season against West Bromwich Albion. https://twitter.com/LFC/status/753667964340150273?lang=en "We're delighted to bring Jordon to the football club," Bournemouth chief executive Neill Blake said.

"He played plenty of football with Liverpool last season and we’re looking forward to seeing him to continue to grow now with us, he’s a huge prospect. We’ve now signed five players this summer, all of whom have an abundance of potential. "It shows that we’re serious about nurturing talent at this football club and we have the long term in mind when we say we want to stay in the Premier League."

The real winners from this transfer may be Wycombe Wanderers, whom Liverpool signed Ibe from in 2011. The League Two club are set to receive a percentage of the sale and according to a club statement, they are currently in the process of finding out exactly what the financial implications are of the of the sell-on clause they inserted into the 2011 deal. It is believed that the clause is for 15% of any fee Liverpool receive, which would give Wycombe a cool £2.25m. Not bad.
