Former Fiorentina goalkeeper Giovanni Galli has warned that Sofyan Amrabat's potential move to Liverpool would have some 'shortcomings' - backing a switch to Tottenham Hotspur instead.
The Reds have been heavily linked with Amrabat following the midfielder's outstanding performances to help Morocco reach the semi-finals of the World Cup, where they will face world champions France on Wednesday. Reports last week even claimed that the club had met with representatives of the Fiorentina man ahead of a January bid, with the player's agent admitting yesterday that 'calls are coming in'.
Amrabat's form on the world stage hasn't just reportedly caught Liverpool's eye, however, with Tottenham also thought to be keen on a move. Antonio Conte is said to have personally requested that Spurs sign the Moroccan in the summer, and he is expected to lead a return in January but faces increased competition after this World Cup.
