Liverpool are desperate to sign 21-year-old Ligue 1 midfielder


 Liverpool have identified Nice star Khephren Thuram as a possible target for January and have held “conversations” with Ligue 1 giants over a potential move.

The German manager is currently under pressure following a terrible start to Liverpool’s 2022/23 campaign, which saw the club not only lose in the Carabao Cup to Man City but also fall behind in the top-four race in the PL.

Liverpool currently sit sixth in the league table ahead of their matchup with 28 points, seven points adrift of fourth place. The winter transfer window provides a perfect chance to bolster the weaker areas of the squad and boost their quest to climb up the ladder.

Another obvious need is in the midfield area. Underwhelming displays from the current options available at Jurgen Klopp’s disposal have seen Liverpool linked with a whole host of midfielders over recent weeks as they look to rebuild that department of their squad in 2023.

A Monaco youth product, the French midfielder joined Nice during the 2019 summer transfer window. Since then, the 21-year-old has gone on to play 116 games for the French outfit in all tournaments, netting six goals and providing seven assists.

The French midfielder is now on Liverpool’s radar following an amazing start to the campaign that has seen him appear in every Ligue 1 game thus far. The Frenchman is under contract until 2025, so Nice aren’t in any rush to sell their prized asset this winter if interested teams don’t meet their asking price, which is unknown as of yet

Liverpool set to make official move for 24-year-old midfielder valued at£39.8m

  Liverpool have reportedly reignited their interest in Matheus Nunes and are weighing up a £44m swoop for the Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder. The Portugal international was heavily linked with a move to Anfield during the summer transfer window, but Jurgen Klopp’s side decided against spending big on a new lynchpin. Still determined to test himself in the Premier League, Nunes became the latest Portuguese player to arrive at Wolves, who paid €45m (£39.8m) to bring the 24-year-old to the club from Sporting Lisbon. Nunes has one assist to show from 14 Premier League games for Julen Lopetegui’s side, and he is under contract at Molineux until 2027 with an option to extend for an additional 12 months. However, Nunes’s efforts have not been able to prevent Wolves’ slide down the table, with Lopetegui’s men sat 19th in the rankings after taking just 13 points from 17 games. Should Wolves drop back down to the Championship, Nunes would not be e...

(Video) Thiago’s three brilliant defensive challenges that demonstrate his Anfield dominance

Image
  Thiago Alcantara had yet another brilliant display for Liverpool and it wasn’t just his usual passing and attacking prowess that was on show but his tackling and defensive abilities too. One video has been created to show three instances when our No.6 won the ball back inside his own half and they were all done with the usual style and class we are used to seeing from the Spain international. It wasn’t the best display from Jurgen Klopp’s squad but the 31-year-old could leave the pitch with his head held high, after helping the Reds secure all three points. Let’s hope his form continues and that we can extend our run of four successive victories in the Premier League. He is immense pic.twitter.com/KdobOK8Feh — - (@PassLikeThiago) December 31, 2022

Bayern Munich eyeing up another Liverpool star – Likely far cheaper than Mané deal

Image
 With a few clubs, including Manchester United, reportedly interested in Eric Choupo-Moting, currently at Bayern Munich, the Bavarian side are preparing for the worst. Having already lost Robert Lewandowski in the summer, the Bundesliga giants have had to rely on the Cameroon international more often than not, but his contract expires in the summer. This has made him attractive for many clubs in January, which is why Bayern Munich are looking at Liverpool for a potential replacement. This is because the Reds have a player in a similar situation as Choupo-Moting in Roberto Firmino, whose contract at Anfield expires in the summer. There have been reports the Brazilian wouldn’t mind extending at Liverpool, but he will take his time to evaluate what his future can bring him. Media Foot in France suggest that could include a transfer back to Germany, where he initially made a name for himself at Hoffenheim. The outlet explain the Liverpool forward ‘is among the profiles studied’ by...
