Liverpool still is linked with Lyon star Houssem Aouar and it'll be intriguing to ascertain if the Reds will move to sign him.
A few days back, we covered a report (via CdS) claiming that the Merseysiders are actively trying to lure the Frenchman.
News Liverpool backed to agree on the signing of 53.4million star
More recently, RMC Sport has revealed that Liverpool is very curious about signing the 21-year-old from Lyon, who are looking to urge around 50 million euros (44.5million) from the sale of their player.
The renowned French news source has claimed that the Merseysiders face competition from top European teams like reigning PL champions Man City, Italian champions Juventus and Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain.
Naturally, Aouar may be a central midfielder but Lyon has deployed him in multiple offensive roles also.
As per Transfermarkt, within the current season, the youngster played seven times as a left-sided midfielder, five times as a central attacking midfielder, once as a left-winger and even once as a defensive midfielder.
So, Aouar is certainly a flexible player, who has netted 9 goals and provided 7 assists in 37 appearances for the French club this term.
The League season ended before completion and in such a scenario, Lyon finished outside the ECU qualification places for the primary time in additional than 20 years.
At Anfield, Liverpool does have several versatile midfielders around. The likes of Wijnaldum, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Keita, Henderson, Fabinho, Milner, and Lallana are capable of playing in multiple positions in the sector.
However, we do lack a natural central attacking midfielder. In fact, we've not even replaced Coutinho so far. Therefore, in my view, at the instant, we don't need a central midfielder, instead, Klopp should specialize in luring a top-quality CAM.
