Jose Enrique says it would be ‘incredible’ if Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool were to secure the signings of Borussia Dortmund’s teenage star Jude Bellingham and Wolves’ summer capture, Matheus Nunes.
The former Liverpool left-back added that ‘dreams do come true’ after he reacted to rumours that the Reds plan to push for both Bellingham and Nunes in the summer.
That’s music to the ears of the Anfield faithful because both are needed, and even more, if there is a proper clear-up of the club’s midfield at the end of the season.
Jordan Henderson can no longer start on a regular basis, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita are out-of-contract in the summer, whilst Fabinho’s form has hit a brick wall and Thiago needs intense midfield machines beside him.
Either way, it wouldn’t be a surprise if Liverpool’s midfield is much-changed next season because you can’t get any more signs from this season that it needs to happen.
Nonetheless, this is what Enrique made of the transfer claims regarding both Bellingham and Nunes, as he posted on his Instagram story.
“It will be incredible, but it’s true that dreams come true sometimes,” said Enrique. “I don’t think we will sign both of them and more if we don’t finish in the top four.”
NUNES UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL
Liverpool knocked Wolves out of the FA Cup on Tuesday night, after Harvey Elliott’s goal proved to be the difference during their replay in the Midlands.
Nunes featured in both matches, and especially at Anfield, he impressed and proved why the likes of Jurgen Klopp want him on board.
That Anfield performance from Nunes was exactly what Liverpool needed and they might just be entertained to that next season, that’s if they can get his signature over the line.
