Liverpool are closing in on another midfielder – and could get a highly-rated gem at a fraction of what he could prove to be wort.
Liverpool is in talks to add a talented young midfielder to their team, and this would strengthen the position.
Wataru Endo, a recent addition, came off the bench as the Reds defeated Bournemouth at home over the weekend despite still having a center of the park player shortage. However, given that Cody Gakpo has recently played in the middle, manager Jurgen Klopp would prefer to add one or two new players.
Liverpool may be in for a frenzy of activity with just under two weeks left before the transfer window closes, and they have reportedly intensified their pursuit of one particular young player.
The 21-year-old has had trouble breaking into the first squad since joining Bayern Munich last summer, but he might find that switching to Klopp’s 4-3-3 might help him rediscover his mojo. The youthful star can influence play in all phases and is a wonderful match for the system.
Gravenberch might be sold on a deal that benefits the Reds compared to some of the more expensive targets they’ve had in the crosshairs because he only cost £16 million to sign last summer. Liverpool might even arrange a loan transfer with a final, agreed-upon sum that is either required or optional.
The Merseysiders, who have been interested in Ryan Gravenberch for a year, are reportedly in talks to bring him to Anfield this summer. Assistant Pep Lijnders is reportedly playing a role in the negotiations.
According to the Telegraph, Lijnders has taken on a larger role in hiring since sporting director Michael Edwards left, and the Dutchman is credited with helping to secure Gakpo. Another Dutch superstar, Gravenberch, may enhance the number of Netherlands internationals at Melwood.

Although there is strong competition at the Allianz Arena and Bayern manager Thomas Tuchel is known to be a fan of the young midfielder, he has only started three games since moving from Ajax.
