Liverpool have been on the lookout for a new midfielder to bolster their squad ahead of the upcoming season. With Jurgen Klopp eyeing a ‘perfect signing’, reports suggest that Liverpool have been told that an Eredivisie midfielder could be a great alternative. The club’s scouts have been keeping a close eye on the player and the move could be a game-changer for Liverpool as they aim to dethrone Manchester City and lift the Premier League trophy once again. In this article, we take a closer look at the Eredivisie midfielder who could be the answer to Liverpool’s midfield dilemma.
Former Ajax manager Aad de Mos suggests that Liverpool should look into signing Feyenoord midfielder Orkun Kokcu if they fail to secure Bayern Munich midfielder Ryan Gravenberch this summer. Liverpool has had a disappointing season, currently sitting eighth in the Premier League table and with no hope of winning any major honours. Their impressive victory over Leeds United last Monday gave fans hope that they still have an outside chance of qualifying for the Champions League. Liverpool is reportedly looking to sign at least one or two midfielders in the summer transfer window. Bayern Munich midfielder Gravenberch is reportedly towards the top of their list, but De Mos believes Feyenoord’s Orkun Kokcu would be a good alternative if Liverpool misses out on Gravenberch. Kokcu has been linked with teams like Lazio Rome, Roma, AC Milan, Tottenham, and now Liverpool. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano stated that Liverpool is still pushing for Gravenberch and considers him a perfect signing. However, Bayern Munich wants him to stay and considers him a vital player. Liverpool is also considering Mason Mount and will have connections with the camp of Alexis Mac Allister soon.
As the transfer window heats up, Liverpool are considering several options to bolster their midfield department. While supporters are already excited about the potential arrival of a ‘perfect signing,’ Eredivisie midfielder could be a great alternative option for the Reds. With his impressive work rate, creativity, and versatility, he could prove to be a valuable addition to Klopp’s squad. Though the decision ultimately lies with the Liverpool hierarchy, fans can only hope that the club makes the best choice possible. Regardless of who arrives at Anfield, one thing is for sure – Liverpool will continue to be a force to be reckoned with in the Premier League next season.
