Liverpool are reportedly interested in Bayern Munich midfielder Ryan Gravenberch, and the youngster was involved quite the pre-season friendly this week.
The Dutch international scored in an incredible 27-0 win for the German giants as Bayern steamrolled past local amateur side Rottach-Egern, with Gravenberch scoring the 25th goal of the match with five minutes of regular time to go.
Having beaten the same opposition four years ago 23-0, it is perhaps no real surprise that the reigning Bundesliga champions were able to go one further this time with the likes of Serge Gnabry, Leroy Sane and former Liverpool man Sadio Mane all getting on the scoresheet, with Gravenberch bagging one for himself.
Linked with a £43m move to Liverpool as according to TuttoMercatoWeb, Gravenberch’s future has been a major talking point this summer as Bayern continue to stall on what they actually want to do with the former Ajax wonderkid this window.
Lauded by journalists as a ‘phenomenal’ player, Gravenberch could become Liverpool’s next midfield signing should Fabinho and Jordan Henderson leave this week. And the youngster has done himself a bit of a favour by scoring in an incredible 27-0 pre-season win.
Liverpool should be keeping a closer eye on Gravenberch
Gravenberch has been linked with a move to Liverpool for what feels like an eternity. Yet the coming weeks could be a defining moment for the youngster’s career, with Bayern’s plan for the youngster set to finally come to the forefront after weeks of whispers and murmurs.
And for Liverpool, they have to keep a close eye on Gravenberch, with the Dutchman a player who could add a lot of value to Jurgen Klopp’s midfield as well a lot of potential, with the Bayern star still one of the most exciting talents in all of Europe.
