Liverpool News: Reds make offer for ace

Liverpool have reportedly tabled a £17.4m provide for Borussia Dortmund attacker Karim Adeyemi, which might be means beneath his valuation.

Accidents and kind have heightened the necessity for the Reds to make a signing or two within the January switch window, with doubts over Mohamed Salah’s future not serving to the scenario.

In the meantime, Alexander Isak is predicted to be out for numerous months with a damaged leg, so Liverpool’s depth feels sparse in attacking areas.

In line with a report from Spain, the Reds have bid £17.4m for Dortmund ace Adeyemi, representing a shock provide that has greatly surprised the Bundesliga facet.

They worth the 23-year-old at £65.4m as a substitute, so there may be clearly an enormous gulf between the 2 quantities in query. It isn’t specified if the switch might occur in January or subsequent summer time, although.

Would Adeyemi be a shrewd signing by Liverpool?

There may be a lot to love about Adeyemi, who’s famend for his blistering tempo but in addition his finish product, scoring 32 objectives and bagging 22 assists in 129 appearances for Dortmund.

Away from their apparent expertise, Liverpool additionally prefer to signal good individuals, and the German outlined his sportsmanship with an awesome second towards VfL Wolfsburg earlier within the season, being hailed by referee Daniel Siebert after the sport:

“I’d prefer to take a second, as a result of it’s not so widespread to see such an excellent honest play gesture in skilled soccer. Adeyemi voluntarily put the ball out of play as a result of he didn’t need to revenue from an opponent’s damage. I feel that’s actually nice, and we’ll file it within the report.”

At 23, Adeyemi remains to be a younger participant, despite the fact that his longevity suggests in any other case, and he might add depth to Liverpool’s assault, having the ability to thrive with no consideration winger primarily, but in addition on the left flank and as a centre ahead.

It might even be that the 11-cap Germany worldwide is being checked out as a long-term alternative for Salah, though the Reds arguably want a extra elite broad man to fill that void.

It doesn’t really feel seemingly that Dortmund shall be prepared to promote Adeyemi for the quantity that Liverpool have provided, nonetheless, so there could have to be a compromise someplace within the center.
