Liverpool players have taken to Social Media to say goodbye to Ben Davies, who's transferred to Rangers for £4m.
The defender, who joined Liverpool a year and a half ago, had a strange time on Merseyside and never managed to play a game.
Davies moved to Anfield as part of an emergency contingency plan to replace all their injured central defenders. At the time Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip were all out of action.

Jurgen Klopp was full of praise when he first arrived:
“He’s a really good footballer, looks like a proper leader in this Preston team, good in challenges, looks football smart, can play different positions because he played in a back three and a back four and all these things.
“That makes him really interesting so I’m really looking forward to working with him."

But it just wasn't to be for the 26-year-old. Davies does now have a chance to restart his career in a strong Rangers side who are also competing in Europe.
"I am very excited to join Rangers and I am really looking forward to taking this next step in my career," he told the Ibrox club's website.
Liverpool will be quite chuffed with the business they have done as, according to the Echo, the Reds have made a decent profit on the player.
It is unlikely Liverpool will be looking to replace him given his lack of game time at the club.
