Liverpool Target Ordonez Overpriced, Says Expert
6 Jan
Summary
- Expert doubts Liverpool target Ordonez's €50m valuation.
- Club Brugge should immediately sell defender for that price.
- Liverpool struggling defensively in current Premier League season.

Former Belgian Pro League boss Hein Vanhaezebrouck has advised Club Brugge to sell highly-rated defender Joel Ordonez for approximately €50m, stating he is not yet ready for top-level European football. Vanhaezebrouck believes the club should "sell him without hesitation" if an offer in that range is presented for the 21-year-old Ecuadorian.
Ordonez, who has played over 100 games for Club Brugge and recently had his contract extended, is reportedly a target for Liverpool. However, Vanhaezebrouck's assessment suggests the Reds might be overpaying for a player still requiring development.
This situation unfolds as Liverpool experiences a challenging Premier League title defense, sitting 14 points behind Arsenal. The team's defense has been porous, conceding 28 goals in 20 matches, exacerbated by injuries to defenders Giovanni Leoni and Joe Gomez.
