Liverpool are set to enter discussions over a £52 million-rated defensive midfielder joining this club this summer.
The Reds are looking at new blood for their midfield this season with the likes of James Milner, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita all approaching the expiry of their contracts, with players such as Jordan Henderson and Fabinho growing older. Trent Alexander-Arnold has played as a kind of false midfielder in recent weeks, drifting into the centre of the pitch, though Jurgen Klopp has not suggested that this is a temporary measure to combat the lack of a top option in the side.
