Report: Liverpool now want to sign 'incredible' £100m defender, who Tottenham are gutted they didn't sign


 Ill Mattino reports that Liverpool are eyeing a possible move for Min-Jae this month after Virgil van Dijk picked up an injury recently. 

The 26-year-old is on Liverpool’s radar in the event that they move for a Van Dijk replacement, but Manchester United are also said to be keen. 

Min-Jae only made the switch to Italy over the summer for £16 million but former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy recently claimed he will now cost around £100 million. 

“His performances have been so good,” Murphy told BBC Sport during South Korea’s clash against Uruguay back in November. 

“I was talking to someone, he said that Manchester United are in for him and they’re talking £100m – that’s how quick you can grow. [Napoli] have been sensational this season, him included.” as quoted by HITC. 

Spurs will undoubtedly regret not taking a chance on Min-Jae after watching his displays for club and country this season. Conte’s side look fragile at the back and the South Korean certainly looks like he would have been an upgrade on Eric Dier. 

Yet, no one could foresee just how easily Min-Jae has adjusted to playing in one of Europe’s best leagues. 

For Spurs, the ship has probably sailed in terms of their chances of landing the centre-back as Napoli can demand a huge fee. 

Liverpool are well-stocked at centre-back but Van Dijk’s injury has certainly thrown a spanner in the works. Min-Jae would undoubtedly improve Klopp’s options in the position but he won’t come cheap after only signing for the club a few months ago.

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

  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...
