abundance

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'enough' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'being surplus liverpool player leaves for one billion that's more' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'being' could be 'da' (D.A. is an example) and 'da' is present in the answer.
'player' could be 'e' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'e' is located in the answer.
'one' could be 'un' (northern English dialect form of 'one') and 'un' is found within the answer.
'billion' could be 'a' (synonyms) and 'a' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'than' is the link.
