LIVERPOOL TOLD TO PAY £65M FOR ‘IRREPLACEABLE’ MIDFIELDER
Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool will reportedly have to spend a lot of money to sign Cheick Doucoure from Crystal Palace.
According to 90min, Liverpool are interested in signing Cheick Doucoure from Premier League rivals Crystal Palace in the summer transfer window.
The report has claimed that Paris Saint-Germain and Atletico Madrid are also keen on the 23-year-old defensive midfielder.
Palace are aware that Liverpool are interested in the youngster and want £65 million in transfer fees for him, according to the report.
Cheick Doucoure would be a good signing for Liverpool
In our opinion, Crystal Palace defensive midfielder Cheick Doucoure would be a very good signing for Liverpool in the summer transfer window.
The Mali international has done well for Palace since his move to Selhurst Park in the summer of 2022.
The 22-year-old made 34 appearances in the Premier League for the Eagles last season.
When Doucoure joined Palace, then Lens captain Seko Fofana described him as “irreplaceable” in L’Equipe, adding that “he is one of the best players or the best player that I have ever played with”.
According to 90min, Jordan Henderson and Fabinho are on the verge of leaving Liverpool for clubs in Saudi Arabia.
Brazilian defensive midfielder Fabinho is on his way to Al-Ittihad , while England international midfielder Henderson is moving to Al-Ettifaq to work under Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard.
Liverpool need to bring in at least one new defensive/central midfielder this summer.
Yes, the Merseyside club have already signed Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, but there is room for more.
Liverpool will be aiming to win the Premier League title next season.
Jurgen Klopp’s side could not even finish in the top four of the league table last season and will not play in the UEFA Champions League next campaign.
Manchester United, Arsenal and perhaps even Chelsea will also be looking to win the title, while Manchester City will be the favourites.
