With the introduction of the new financial fair practice rules from next summer, a team with a successful academy is going to have more success. Liverpool already have a world class academy, mainly due to Rafa Bentiez’s hard work but it does not yet compare with some of the big teams in European football. This sort of partnership could take the club and is yet another example of the owners looking to the long term future of the club.
Liverpool will hope that this rapid growth of Uruguay as a footballing power will continue and that the link with the Club Nacional could be a chance to secure some of the country’s untapped talent. Liverpool’s attentions will focused on the Nacional club in the hope that they can discover the ‘next Luis Suarez’.
The club are now looking to bring worldwide talent to Anfield and this sort of deal makes both football and financial sense. In return for financial investment they will get first choice of one of the most productive academies in the world and there is no reason why they cannot build a new history with Uruguayan talent at Anfield. I don’t think it will be too long before we see other clubs following suit.
