Liverpool must go all out to sign Robert Lewandowski.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp
Liverpool are on the verge of sealing a deal to sign Mohamed Salah, with The Times reporting a transfer will be announced later today.
The move is expected to be the first of many at Anfield this summer as Jurgen Klopp seeks to develop a team capable of winning the Premier League.
Klopp was a league winner in Germany with Borussia Dortmund, and the integral player behind that success could suddenly be available.
Bayern Munich’s Robert Lewandowski
Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski is keen on a move away from Bayern, with SkySports reporting that Chelsea and Manchester United have held talks with the Pole’s representatives amid claims he is unsettled.
Bayern are trying their best to play down the situation, with The Guardian reporting they are keen to remind Lewandowski he is still under contract.
The 28-year-old scored 30 goals in 33 league games last season, and 43 in all competitions. He also has 11 goals already in World Cup qualifiers.
Poland’s Robert Lewandowski in action
If Liverpool could add Lewandowski, he would be a Premier League winning striker for them.
Manchester United or Chelsea would likely enjoy the same success if they signed him, but it is the Reds who have the big advantage due to Jurgen Klopp.
Dortmund’s former scout Artur Platek told Polish newspaper Przeglad Sportowy yesterday how Klopp used to to travel to Poland in disguise to watch Lewandowski personally.
He was sold on the striker and quickly moved to sign him up.
He shouldn’t need to watch him in action again to make his mind up to test Dortmund’s resolve and urge Liverpool to push the boat out and offer everything the Reds have to get him.
