Journalist Graeme Bailey claims that Leon Goretzka will be a top target Liverpool, if he becomes available in this transfer market.
With both Fabinho and Jordan Henderson leaving the club, Reds are in urgent need of a defensive midfielder this summer. Liverpool are currently monitoring various options such as Southampton’s Romeo Lavia and Moroccan midfielder Sofyan Amrabat.
Speaking on the Talking Transfer Podcast, Reds will be ready to make a move for German midfielder Leon Goretzka if he leaves Bayern this summer. The German outfit might not be ready to offload him at this moment.
Bailey claims if Goretzka becomes available this summer, he’ll come with a big pricetag. He further said:-
“We may see an exit in there, but Gravenberch remains the most likely. I don’t think Bayern would mind it being Goretzka, because he would come with a hefty pricetag, but I don’t think he’s in a massive hurry to leave which is why we’re not seeing. If he was available, we’re seeing United linked to Amrabat and Liverpool linked to all sorts, if Goretzka was available he’d be very high on United and Liverpool’s list, very high.”
Frankly speaking, Liverpool won’t go for the German this summer. Reds knows that fact he’s a crucial figure in Bayern Team.
Bayern Munich have one of the best midfield pairing in the world in Goretzka and Joshua Kimmich. They’ll not be in hurry to break that up anytime soon.
In today’s footballing world, anything can happen but Goretzka becoming Liverpool’s latest signing is not happening anytime soon.
