Report: Arne Slot is now thinking about making bid to sign £40m star for Liverpool in January
Klopp wanted him too
Arne Slot has taken Liverpool to a whole new level this season.
The Dutchman was handed the frightening responsibility of replacing Jurgen Klopp at Anfield. There were concerns over whether he could do it in England, but all those worries have gone out of the window now.
Liverpool are on top of both, the Premier League and the Champions League tables. They have been one of the best teams in Europe, and the expectation is that they will get even better in the coming years.
The January transfer window is not too far away now, and Liverpool are being linked with a hugely talented Premier League player.
What Liverpool are planning to do as Arne Slot eyes Fulham star Antonee Robinson
Liverpool signed just one player in the summer transfer window – Federico Chiesa.
Everyone expected Slot to be heavily backed in the market ahead of his first season at Anfield, but for one reason or another, only one signing could be completed.
Liverpool are in a great position to go all the way in the Premier League now, and fans are hoping that FSG will help Slot strengthen the squad in January to give them the best chance.
GiveMeSport have now revealed the one name Liverpool are considering – Antonee Robinson of Fulham.
The American has been excellent for the Cottagers for over a year now, and there is a chance he will leave them for a bigger club very soon.
Liverpool have long been linked with Robinson, since Klopp was at the club, and the report now claims that Slot’s Reds are contemplating whether to make a ‘formal offer’ to sign him in January.
Robinson is said to be worth around £40 million, but the report claims that Fulham don’t want to lose him in the middle of the season and are hoping to price Liverpool out of a move.
It remains to be seen whether the Reds will make a bid in January to test Fulham’s resolve.
What Liverpool think about Manchester City’s interest in Antonee Robinson
Liverpool are among the biggest clubs in the world.
The Reds have a phenomenal squad, are on top of the table in the Premier League and Champions League and play an attractive style of football.
That makes them a great destination for most players in the world, but the report reveals that Liverpool will face competition from Manchester City for Robinson’s signature.
It has been revealed that Pep Guardiola’s side have taken a great interest in the American, and the City boss is mulling over the prospect of signing him.
However, the report claims that Liverpool are hopeful of beating City to his signature because of their recent history of signing players from Fulham – Fabio Carvalho and Harvey Elliott.
