Another Liverpool player has announced that he is leaving the club, posting an emotional farewell to fans on social media.

The summer transfer window has been quiet for Liverpool, who remain the only Premier League club yet to sign a player ahead of the window closing on August 30.

However, in terms of outgoings, the club has said goodbye to several big names in the squad, with players like Joel Matip, Thiago Alcantara and Fabio Carvalho all departing this summer.

And now, another Liverpool player has left the club, with the player confirming that his future was elsewhere in an emotional social media post.

Bobby Clark joined the Merseyside club in 2022, but has announced he will be leaving to join Austrian club Red Bull Salzburg.

Posting on X, Clark wrote: "After an incredible 3 years at @liverpoolfc, I've decided it's time for a new challenge. I've learned so much during my time at the club and am very thankful for the opportunities and experiences I've had. Thank you to all the fans who supported me on this journey #ynwa ❤️"

Minutes later, he confirmed his new club, writing: "I am incredibly proud and excited to start this new chapter with @fcredbullsalzburg. I’m ready to work hard and bring my best to this team! Lets go."

Shortly after Clark's announcements, The Times correspondent Paul Joyce confirmed the details of the deal, which is worth up to £10million.

On top of the fee, Liverpool have also secured a 17.5% sell on clause in the deal and a match rights agreement, meaning that they can bring Clark back to the club if they equal any future bid that Salzburg receives for him.

Rumours of Clark's departure from Liverpool began circulating earlier in the window after the midfielder, who came up through the club's academy, posted a cryptic message on social media.

The Englishman enjoyed a breakout season for Liverpool last season making 12 senior appearances, including his first start in the Premier League.

But he will now join former Liverpool assistant manager Pep Lijinders, who took over as manager of RB Salzburg after departing the Merseyside club alongside Jurgen Klopp at the end of last season.
