Liverpool could complete first signing of the summer before transfer window even opens

Liverpool have signed just seven players on free transfers during Jurgen Klopp’s reign


the England international wouldn’t be the only new arrival in the engine-room, if signed, with the Reds continuing to find themselves linked with Matheus Nunes and Mason Mount.


In need of three new midfielders, such business could admittedly cost around £200m


While midfield is the priority, it isn’t the only position Klopp will need to recruit in this summer. A new back-up goalkeeper and a new centre-back are also arguably required,


f Liverpool have spent big elsewhere, the funds might not be there for further big-money signings in positions which aren’t as high up their list of priorities.


Historically when Liverpool move for an out-of-contract player, it tends to be either a back-up goalkeeper or a highly-talented youngster who would still command a compensation fee.



From Klopp’s seven free agents signed since October 2015, Alex Manninger, Adrian, and Andy Lonergan ticked the former box, with Dominic Solanke, Harvey Elliott, and Fabio Carvalho all fulfilling the latter


now reports suggest Liverpool could replace the Cameroonian in similar fashion, as they continue to be linked with a move for Eintracht Frankfurt defender Evan Ndicka.


The 23-year-old is a pacey left-sided centre-back, who can also cover at left-back or in defensive midfield. A Europa League winner with Eintracht Frankfurt last season, he earned valuable Champions League experience with the Bundesliga outfit during the current campaign as a result.


Meanwhile, he’s also comfortable on the ball and played alongside Reds defender Ibrahima Konate before for France in their youth ranks.


other words, he ticks a lot of boxes. And he’s set to be available on a free transfer this summer after turning down a final contract offer from Frankfurt.


with Liverpool finding themselves increasingly linked with the France youth international, he could become their first signing of the summer before the transfer window has even opened.
