Liverpool reportedly agree a £6m deal with Lazio for the sale of midfielder Luis Alberto.

Liverpool have reportedly agreed to sell Luis Alberto to Lazio for £6m.

The midfielder joined the Reds from Sevilla in 2013 for £6.8m, but has failed to earn a regular spot in the first team having had loan spells at Malaga and Deportivo La Coruna.

It appears as though the 23-year-old does not fit into Jurgen Klopp's plans at Anfield as the Liverpool Echo reports that the Merseyside outfit have agreed to sell him.

The newspaper claims that Liverpool will receive an initial £4.3m figure, which will rise by £1.7m subject to European qualification.

It is believed that the Reds have also agreed a 30% sell-on clause with Lazio, who have recorded a win and a defeat in the early stages of the Serie A season.

Alberto made 12 appearances for Liverpool, all of which came in the 2013-14 campaign under former manager Brendan Rodgers.
