Liverpool could yet have a free run at a reported defensive midfield target, PSV’s Ibrahim Sangare this summer following one reporter’s update.
The Reds have been wounded by the two midfield transfer targets getting poached by Chelsea. The cases of Caicedo and Lavia are hard pills to swallow but the Reds are now determined to find another transfer target.
The Anfield club is targeting the PSV midfielder, Ibrahim Sangare who is also reportedly targeted by Bayern and PSG. However, recent reports have suggested that the Ivorian is of no interest to Bayern.
Liverpool at a clear chance to sign Ibrahim Sangare?
The recent news by Florian Plettenberg that Bayern aren’t interested to sign Sangare is music to Liverpool supporters’ ears. This leaves the Reds with a clear opportunity to sign the 25-year-old this summer.
Since the departures of Henderson and Fabinho, the Reds haven’t been able to replace either of them. However, after their first game, it is evident that Klopp needs midfield reinforcements.
For the majority of the game, the Reds were dominated in the midfield by Chelsea. Now adding two great players in Caicedo and Lavia would definitely demand Liverpool to do the same.
The 25-year-old has been repeatedly linked with a switch to Anfield. Although, it remains to be seen whether he tops the list of the club’s remaining available options on the shortlist.
With a release clause of £32.3m, it could make a great deal of sense to trigger our third release clause of the summer.
Also, it could fast-track the player’s arrival at a time when a number six is desperately needed.
The key for Liverpool will be consistency at this stage following failed moves for both Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia.
We can’t blame the club for aiming high at the risk of looking silly in the market. But, they do now, following the latter’s decision to join the Ecuadorian at Stamford Bridge.
However, the fans now hope that the club’s next option in the market will be pursued with a singular focus on the player.
After the recent drama, fans hope that this wouldn’t halt at the sight of the asking price, above the club’s evaluation.
