Jamie Redknapp has urged Liverpool to go back into the market and sign Jude Bellingham to ease their midfield problems in a ‘needs must’ situation.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have drawn their opening two games of the new Premier League season against Fulham and Crystal Palace and a growing injury list has left them bereft of options. Many of those injuries have been concentrated in midfield, with Thiago (hamstring) Curtis Jones (calf) and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (hamstring) all sidelined, while Naby Keita was only fit enough for the bench on Monday in the 1-1 home draw with Palace.
Those absences, coupled with a concerning lack of goal contributions from the options available, have led to calls for the Reds to dip back into the market and strengthen midfield. And their former captain Redknapp wants his old to bring forward a bid for Borussia Dortmund and England starlet Bellingham.
