Lots of Liverpool fans have taken to Twitter to react after it was revealed that the club’s Melwood training centre will be bulldozed in 12 months’ time, after a reported £10m deal was agreed with property developers Torus.
The Reds will be moving to Kirkby when they are no longer able to train at Melwood, which has been home to the Liverpool first-team for many years.
Bill Shankly transformed it into a top-class training facility back in 1959 after it had been in a terrible state, and it has improved substantially over the years to house the likes of Steven Gerrard, Luis Suarez, Fernando Torres, Graeme Souness and many more.
