Dan signs for Charlton

Danny helped Liverpool win countless trophies, and won player of the season 2002-2003 in his time at Anfield.
The former Crewe trainee was told by Dario to stay at Liverpool but 'Super Dan' made his feelings known about Liverpool and Benitez has since made his known about Murphy. With the new manager looking at a new squad he was always to off load Murphy to free up some cash and space for some Johnny Foreigner.

Liverpool accepted a £3million bid from Tottenham before accepting a £2.5million bid from Charlton. Danny rejected Tottenham in favour of Charlton so he could get first team football, and he could have done a lot worse than the Addicks.

Murphy moves in a £2.5million deal and Crewe don't receive any pay out from the transfer as no sell-on clause was agreed when Murphy was sold in 1996.
