Brad Smith and Jon Flanagan need more game time to improve. Both are not good enough and still young.
Liverpool have negotiated a buy-back clause in their deal with Bournemouth, allowing them to bring Smith back to Merseyside for a set fee within the next two years.
This follows similar deals involving fellow youngsters Jordon Ibe and Sergi Canos, who left to join Bournemouth and Norwich City respectively this summer.
