In football everything goes very quickly. More and more young players are receiving large sums of money. Difficult in these conditions to keep your feet on the ground. That’s why Liverpool have implemented a “car clause” in the contracts of the nuggets of its training center. This prohibits them from coming to the training center with a big racing car. As revealed Alex Inglethorpe, Reds academy managerin an interview with « We Are Liverpool » on the club channel.
Liverpool put a ban on big cars for their youngsters
Training at Liverpool is done both on and off the pitch. Thus, the young players of the Academy are not allowed to come to the training center with a luxury car. “There’s a balance, so what we’re doing now is players signing a car clause. You don’t want them driving a Range Rover”, explains Inglethorpe. In addition to not losing touch with reality, Liverpool are also careful regarding the image that young players send back to their more experienced team-mates.
Liverpool highlight Milner, Robertson and Henderson examples
“The reason you don’t want them coming up with something too big, too grand, too important is because it’s not just the manager and staff who may have an opinion of you, but these are the senior players”, he added. When speaking to young people at the academy, Alex Inglethorpe cites Andy Robertson, Jordan Henderson and James Milner as role models. “I’m not sure that James Milner, Jordan Henderson, Andy Robertson, that the first cars they drove were devoid of humility. I use it in a presentation with the boys. » Understand that before flaming and getting lost in ostentatious spending, there is a professional career to succeed.
