Ideally, Liverpool would sign both the PSV ace and Southampton youngster Romeo Lavia this summer, giving Klopp two great options in the No.6 role, with a left-sided centre-back, such as Sporting CP’s highly rated youngster Goncalo Inacio, also taking precedence.
Liverpool have already identified a replacement for Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia, but a new rumor claims they will have to compete with another major club for his signature.
Who exactly is Ibrahim Sangare?
The Reds are in serious need of a new defensive midfielder before the current transfer window shuts later this month, with Caicedo electing to join Chelsea after a bidding war, and Lavia’s future also in doubt.
Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool side looked worryingly exposed in Sunday’s 1-1 Premier League draw at Stamford Bridge, with Alexis Mac Allister entrusted with taking up the No.6 role – a position he rarely played in during his time at Brighton – and the visitors giving up chances at will.
If an out-and-out defensive midfielder doesn’t come in as soon as possible, it is going to hamper Liverpool’s chances of mounting a genuine title challenge hugely, and also affect their hopes of getting back into the Champions League next season.
