Liverpool are reportedly interested in signing PSV Eindhoven midfielder Ibrahim Sangare, with the 24-year-old also wanted by Bayern Munich and PSG.
According to agent Kiki Musampa, the Ivory Coast international is on the Reds’ radar as a potential alternative to Moises Caicedo, with the Brighton & Hove Albion star set to snub Liverpool for Chelsea.
Musampa said when asked which clubs are interested in Sangare: “Liverpool have him on their transfer list, so a transfer could happen.”
Hailed by Foot The Ball as a midfield ‘behemoth’, the 6’3″ talent is regarded by many as one of the most underrated players in all of Europe, with Sangare due a move to a big club for some years.
And that time could now be this summer, with Liverpool a dream destination for Sangare given their need for a defensive midfielder and some serious physicality in the centre of the pitch.
