Liverpool defender 'interests' Jose Mourinho amid speculation of AS Roma switch

Jose Mourinho Liverpool Joel Matip Anfield Jurgen Klopp Ibrahima Konate John Henry

Jose Mourinho would be interested in signing Joel Matip if the defender is allowed to leave Liverpool this summer, according to a new report.

The 31-year-old defender who made the move to Anfield in the summer on 2016 from Schalke 04 is out of contract next summer and has been touted as a departure Liverpool could sanction to raise funds ahead of a decisive summer on Merseyside.
