Jurgen Klopp is ‘already pursuing’ a deal for Bayern Munich midfielder Ryan Gravenberch, with Liverpool’s renewed interest potentially changing Bayern’s plans for the player.
That’s according to journalist Manuel Bonke, who reports that Gravenberch was a key subject discussed in the latest meeting of Bayern’s hierarchy.
Gravenberch has long been linked with a potential move to Liverpool this summer, with his name emerging as a target even before the likes of Jordan Henderson and Fabinho had headed to Saudi Arabia.
His name has now re-emerged as an option after the failure to sign either Moises Caicedo or Romeo Lavia, with reports claiming Liverpool are now looking at a deal for him once again.
This has not gone unnoticed by Bayern and Bonke reports that at the latest transfer meeting between Bayern’s leadership, Gravenberch’s future was ‘discussed at length and in depth’.
That’s because the player is having a ‘difficult time’ under Thomas Tuchel and Liverpool, specifically Klopp, are ‘already pursuing’ him.
In other words, Klopp and Liverpool’s efforts coupled with the player’s unhappiness at the Allianz could now be enough to convince Munich to sell.
Beim Transfer-Meeting des #FCBayern wurde auch lange u. intensiv über die Zukunft von #Gravenberch diskutiert. Ursprünglich war der Plan, ihn nicht abzugeben – doch der Spieler hat einen schweren Stand bei Trainer #Tuchel und @LFC (#Klopp) baggert bereits an ihm. @kessler_philipp
