Despite multiple claims that Liverpool are interested in Enzo Fernández, the fact Liverpool are set to sign Cody Gakpo suggests they aren’t going to fork out €120m on a new midfielder.
A smaller fee for a player that can provide security in front of the defence, however, is something they could end up spending, and that’s where Sofyan Amrabat comes in.
The defensive midfielder was one of the stars of the 2022 World Cup, and Liverpool were quickly thrown into the mix of interested parties.
It makes sense, since the club have a lack of depth in the heart of their squad, and while they have youngsters they can rely on here and there, few are ready to play full-time under Jürgen Klopp.
They write that the Reds are ‘on his trail’, as they want to ‘reinforce’ themselves in the middle of the pitch, with the Morocco international seen as the ‘ideal player’ to do that.
Fiorentina, however, do not want to sell in the slightest, but we all know the right amount could sway them.
It’s said that his value is now ‘€40m, if not €45m’, and because Amrabat ‘wants to play in the Champions League’, Liverpool would certainly be a good destination for him to achieve that.
