Liverpool have secured the signing of a versatile star by hiring the services of Dutch international Georginio Wijnaldum from Championship side Newcastle United this summer.
Now, reports in the French media suggest that Jurgen Klopp has moved in to agree another star signing from the Magpies.
According to Le10Sport, the Reds have sent a contract proposal to Les Bleus star Moussa Sissoko to agree personal terms with him before making any offer to Newcastle United.
The 26-year-old star is a center midfielder but he mainly played as an attacker for Newcastle last season. France manager Didier Deschamps also utilized him in the attack at the European Championships.
The former Toulouse star took part in 37 PL games for the Magpies last season and directly contributed in 9 goals (1 goals and 8 assists).
Welsh midfielder Joe Allen left Liverpool to officially join Stoke City yesterday and Liverpool must sign someone to replace him.
Sissoko will be a fantastic addition but he will not come cheap. Newcastle have slapped a price tag (Sky) of 35 million pounds ($46 million) on Moussa.

Sissoko ot J Mario are world class. The revolution is coming.
I am a SPorting fan, so i want Jão Mário to stay in the club, but I know it’s difficult. LFC is my british club, so him leaving I would like him going to LFC.
But SPorting won’t sell for less than 40/45 million euros, and I don’t know if LFC wants to spend that on himm, but would be FREAKING AWESOME!! He’s already awesome adn with a big margen to be even better 😉
Looks like soon LFC will be NUFC, for B. Rodgers it was 4 purchases from Southampton
Lfc won’t be NUFC. Wujnaldum and sissoko are world class players and they just happened to be in Newcastle. Rodgers was only buying overrated English players and one season wonders. Sissoko is proven and will deliver any day. Moreso that Klopp is even miles better than Rodgers, he’ll utilize them better and you could see improvements in Rodgers misfits when klopp took over. No worries at all.
Wijnaldum – Yes he is a class player just needs to be motivated.
Sissoko – Will play 5 great games and 35 average to below average games. Mark my words.
Got to stop this obsession with buying midfielders!!!! Need another striker plus a left back and not a tenth midfield player. If we are to get Sissoko – and he’s a bloody good player who could be the defensive midfielder we’ve lacked since Alonso left – we must get rid of a few or the squad will be overloaded in that area with some players playing every fourth game . . . and their egos won’t like that one little bit!!!
Too many midfielders doesn’t make sense seems
Like we’re going down the same road this time every year
Why not get a world class Striker can rely on sturidge for sure
Origi and benteke are mid class players occasionally they will come alive
But will be in the same class of lfc past great rush, Owen, fowler Suarez
Dev. Good analysis there. Hendo belongs to Sunderland class but lalana can still be a fringe player. None deserves starting spot in Liverpool though. Sissoko will be a perfect solution to the central midfield problems. But I want klopp to sign Jetro Williams at left back and one more quality striker because of sturiidge’s injuries and the cup will be ours.
Sad to read so much rubbish from supposed supporters of our club. Stop thinking you are some genius about football and trust the manager. Lest you forget Rodgers also did a very good job for us. Insulting signings from Southampton Newcastle and insulting the likes of Henderson Milner only makes you look stupid
I wonder why Klopp is interested in CM. We need a defensive Midfielder, a destroyer who will play significant role in our team. kante was ideal player for that spot but we let him go.
Matuidi and jao Mario one of them should be signed.
You guys… Liverpool have all the right players, Emre Can can be utilized as a DM, I am REDS by heart, I am behind the manager 24/7/365, Let him do his thing , we rally behind him and he will lead us to paradise.
Let’s get one thing very clear: Klopp buys players only if he thinks they fit into his type of team and can play his style of play. BR came with all his blathering on about tiki taka football but never managed to communicate his actual desired style to the players. He also bought players who were unsuited to that type of football. What we ended up with was a mismatched group who never got to grips with working together as a team.
I believe the new players are going to make a massive difference. We have shipped out some of the dead wood and by that I do NOT mean they were rubbish players: they are good but not suited to what JK is building. I wish them all well in their future careers. But when I look at what we’ve now got, I am genuinely excited. A goalie who doesn’t flap at set pieces and who has a much better understanding of positioning. A top central defender bought for very small money in Joel Matip. Klavan is also a much better defender than the price tag suggests. If we can get one more in for LB along the lines of Jetro Willems we’ll stop leaking silly goals at the back.
Grujic looks a very exciting find indeed and Mane is like lightning. With him playing in from the right, Firmino inside him and Coutinho on the other side and then Wijnaldum and Sissoko in a five-man midfield we will scare the living day lights out of a lot of defences. We’ll be able to play from left right or centre in to the front man, be that Sturridge or Origi.
This is exciting times and I trust JK to brig these players together into a coherent and powerful force. YNWA
