Zaryab — Sun, 07 Jan 2018 20:00:44 +0000

Liverpool have got a lot of funds to invest now that they have sold Coutinho to Barcelona and Klopp must spend wisely.
The Reds needed to strengthen their back line and they have already lured Van Dijk this month. The Merseysiders are also looking to sign a new goalie because the likes of Karius and Mignolet have been inconsistent.
Two days back, Independent reported that Atletico Madrid’s Jan Oblak would be an ideal signing for Liverpool but other top clubs are also interested in him. In such a scenario, the Reds have also targeted Roma’s Alisson.

As far as the Slovenian international is concerned, Don Balon have talked about the reports in the English media and claimed that with PSG and other top clubs looking to sign the shot stopper, it is highly unlikely that he will head to Liverpool.
However, the Spanish source have mentioned that Klopp will still try to snap up the 25-year-old star, who is one of the best goalies in the world.
The former Benfica star kept 22 clean sheets in 26 appearances for the Portuguese side before moving to Atletico Madrid in 2014. This season, in 18 league games under Simeone, he has only conceded 8 goals and kept 11 clean sheets.
Oblak’s current contract with the Rojiblancos will expire in 2021 and it has a huge clause (AS) of 100 million euros (£89million).

Liverpool splashed 10 million pounds to hire the services of Andrew Robertson from Hull City in the summer transfer window.
The Scottish defender was lured to solve the left back dilemma at Anfield but he has mainly warmed the bench this season as Klopp has preferred Alberto Moreno in his starting team.
The 25-year-old Spanish international could start two PL games in the entire last campaign. This time around, he has already started 9 league games.

According to an exclusive report covered by Calcio Mercato, Liverpool and Juventus have been interested in the 22-year-old Spanish defender and they have been informed that Benfica would only sell for a fee of 40 million euros ($46.4million).
Therefore, Klopp can get Grimaldo’s signing done for the above mentioned fee. The German manager surely needs a reliable left back for the long term and Alejandro would be a quality capture.
Grimaldo’s current contract with the Portuguese champions will expire in 2021. In your opinion should Jurgen secure his signature for Liverpool?

Marek — Mon, 07 Aug 2017 21:00:03 +0000

Manchester United need to sign an attacking player before the transfer window closes this month and once again Anderson Talisca is in the limelight.
The 23-year-old Brazilian international was in brilliant form for Besiktas (on loan from Benfica) last season and helped them win the league title.
In 33 appearances in all competitions, the Samba star directly contributed in no fewer than 23 goals (17 goals and 6 assists).

According to a report covered by Foto Spor, after top performances, the Besiktas president wants to sign Talisca on a permanent deal and for that he is prepared to pay the 25 million euros ($29.5million) release clause in his contract.
However, the Turkish source have mentioned that the move depends on the parent club Benfica and the claim is that Manchester United are finishing up a deal to sign the South American attacker. If the translation done by Turkish-Football is taken into consideration then it says that United have reached an agreement with the Primeira Liga giants to sign Talisca.
Foto Spor have further stated that if United are finishing up then Fikret knows that Talisca could not be stopped from leaving and therefore, he is looking to sign a player from the Red Devils.
The attacker targeted is 21-year-old Andreas Pereira who spent last season on loan with Granada and scored 5 goals. In your opinion, is Anderson Talisca good enough to improve Man United’s attack?

Zaryab — Mon, 03 Jul 2017 11:59:48 +0000

Liverpool lack quality and depth in their strike-force and must sign a proven quality goalscorer in the summer transfer window.
Last season, Roberto Firmino was mainly used in the CF role by Jurgen Klopp, Origi mainly warmed the bench and the likes of Ings and Sturridge were mostly on the treatment table.
In the winter transfer window, the Reds were linked with Mexican international Raul Jimenez (via Squawka). If the latest reports in the media are anything to go by then the Merseysiders are still interested in signing the Benfica striker.
According to an exclusive report covered by Record, a purchase proposal worth 45 million euros ($51million) has been made from England, where the likes of Liverpool and West Ham United are hoping to sign him.

The 26-year-old striker has played 50 games for the senior Mexican side and scored just 9 goals. He made four appearances in the recently concluded Confederations Cup and scored jjust 1 goal.
In the last campaign, he only started 6 league games, scored 7 goals and provided 2 assists. Overall, in 32 appearances, he scored 11 times and provided 3 assists. In all honesty, this bench warmer from Benfica is not good enough to improve Liverpool’s striking department.

As per the provided O Jogo link, United are ready to make an offer worth 35 million euros to hire his services, however, Benfica president Luís Filipe Vieira is demanding a fee of 40 million euros to approve the transfer.
Nelson’s current contract with the Primeira Liga champions will expire in 2021 and it has a huge release clause (Telegraph) of 80 million euros (£70million). In your opinion, should United splash 40 million euros to sign Semedo?
