Harry Redknapp believes Liverpool's move for Nathaniel Clyne will prove to be a great purchase for the club.

Clyne is expected to sign for Liverpool after having the first part of his medical on Monday. Sky sources understand the transfer will be worth around £12.5m.

Redknapp admits he monitored the progress of Clyne during his time at Tottenham, when the defender was playing for Crystal Palace. 

He is confident Brendan Rodgers has now signed the finished article and has praised Clyne's development at Southampton. 

The Reds signed three players from Southampton last summer; Rickie Lambert, Adam Lallana and Dejan Lovren and Clyne is set to continue the trend this summer.

Redknapp made a tongue-in-cheek comment about Liverpool's business with the Saints but gave his approval of the move.

"Nathaniel Clyne to Liverpool is a great move, although it seems Liverpool only seem to buy Southampton players now! We could have had him at Spurs when he was at Palace," Redknapp told Kicca

"He took his game to another level at Southampton and I think that’s a great buy by Brendan."
