Liverpool are looking to sign a player likened to Xabi Alonso in the January transfer window, 16 years after the Spaniard left for Real Madrid.
Alonso spent five successful seasons at Liverpool between 2004 and 2009, working brilliantly in midfield with his expert passing ability and intelligence on the pitch. The Reds have missed that control since his departure all those years ago, though, and is something Arne Slot seemingly wants to bring back to Anfield.
