I know many of you have seen Liverpool make some strange deals lately. An investigation has been made by the admin team, and for transparency the result of the investigation is posted.
There are eight managers involved, including Giovanni Meija, Maurice Konig, Joey Koorevaar, Josh Pynadath, Willem Geubbels, Valeriy Lobanovskyi, Party Naeemunisha and Baz Akehurst himself.
All these managers make transfers with Baz Akehurst, where P/X deals are made to trade talented youths to whichever team Baz Akehurst manages at the time. When a deal is reversed it is typical that Baz makes an improved offer to avoid reversal. It seems no other manager has a chance of signing any of these players.
Joey Koorevaar has not made a P/X deal with Baz yet, but IMO he’s just waiting for the right youth on an available team to come along.
All these managers has now been fired.
Some of these deal go years back in time, and I have not taken the time to evaluate their exact value at the time. All the dates of the deals are noted in case someone is willing to.

http://www.footballglory.com/players/player.php?id=71140) for a total of 7mill + a bunch of low quality players. The deal was reversed, but Liverpool later signed Omeruo.
Note: I don’t think Liverpool at the time had the resources to sign the 591 16yo in an improved deal which wouldn’t be reversed.
