Sheffield United midfielder Sander Berge is ‘relaxed ‘about his future amid interest from Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool and Graham Potter’s Chelsea, according to YorkshireLive.
Sander Berge stance on future amid Liverpool and Chelsea interest
The report has claimed that Berge is ‘relaxed’ over his future, and that the Norway international midfielder ‘has made it known that the Premier League is his preferred destination’.
The 24-year-old, who has a release clause of £35 million in his contract at the Blades, is not pushing for a move away from his Championship club at the moment, according to the report.
This follows recent claims that Liverpool and Chelsea are keen on the Norwegian.
Jeunes Footeux reported last week that Liverpool and Chelsea could make bids for Berge in the January transfer window.
The report claimed that Liverpool and Chelsea have been keen on Blades midfielder Berge for several months now and could make offers for the 24-year-old Norway international midfielder when the window opens in January.
Could a transfer happen in January?
In our opinion, if Liverpool or Chelsea are to sign Sander Berge from Sheffield United in the January transfer window, then they have to pay his release clause of £35 million.
Sheffield United are aiming to win promotion to the Premier League at the end of the season, and the Blades will surely not want to sell any of their best players in the middle of the campaign.
However, if Liverpool or Chelsea trigger Berge’s release clause, then the Blades will simply have to let the midfielder speak to the Reds or the Blues.
Would Berge then be able to turn down a move to Liverpool or Chelsea?
We do not think so.
