Liverpool have been linked with Napoli’s Fabian Ruiz.
Liverpool supporters are seemingly impressed on Twitter after a report emerged linking them with Napoli’s Fabian Ruiz.
The Express have claimed that Liverpool are hoping to win the race for the midfielder’s signature and he is valued at a whopping £74 million.
Given the calibre of teams keen on Ruiz’s signature – Bayern, Real Madrid, Manchester United and Barcelona, it does seem as though the Premier League champions-elect have some serious competition on their hands.
Despite dominating the Premier League this season, Liverpool’s so-called weaker position is in the middle of the park where they perhaps need that extra magic, creative spark and something different.
Liverpool fans on Twitter believe Ruiz would be a great purchase for the club and would suit Jurgen Klopp’s non-stop action style.
Gini Wijanldum, Fabinho and Jordan Henderson have been Liverpool’s main three midfielders, with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain trying to find his magic again since returning from a long-term injury.
But there are question marks over the heads of the likes of Adam Lallana and Naby Keita, so it wouldn’t be a surprise if at least one of those individuals left when the window re-opens, and of course, they would then need to be replaced.
Whilst Liverpool have had a mixed time of it in the transfer market – more good than bad has come out of it, and whenever they have gone big, they do seem to get it right. More notably Virgil van Dijk and Alisson Becker.
