According to Takvim, Galatasaray want to sign Liverpool talent Yasser Larouci at the end of the season.

The Reds have Andrew Robertson at left back, who is so consistent and reliable that summer signing Kostas Tsimikas can barely get a kick.

That means Larouci has slipped completely off the first-team radar after two senior appearances for Jurgen Klopp last season.

In fact, with Larouci in the final year of his contract at Anfield, he has only been given two Premier League 2 appearances, with his exit now imminent.

Liverpool seemingly don’t want him playing and shining when he can leave in a matter of months, but he is still on the Galatasaray radar.

The Turkish giants are in the market for a new left back, with Uruguayan loanee Marcelo Saracchi set to return to RB Leipzig this summer.

Larouci is one of their main targets to replace Saracchi, given that he can walk away from Liverpool at the end of the season, making him a bargain addition.

The 20-year-old would surely jump at the chance to join Galatasaray, having seen an alleged move to Leeds United fall through in October.

Larouci, once tipped for a bright future and branded ‘lightning’ quick by coach Barry Lewtas in 2019, looks set to leave Liverpool quietly, and a move to Turkey could be on the cards.
