Klopp WANTS HIM and Liverpool coud pay 50 MILLION for him
The German coach isn't quite done yet in the market, and his latest move could come soon
It sounds odd to say that a club that spent nearly 100 million euros in the transfer market has been relatively quiet, but Liverpool really have.

He's now for his polifacetic style of play, being able to build up play and play killer passes as well as being defensively solid, skills that would make him a top Premier League midfielder. Since joining the Rossoneri, he's played 105 matches for the club, scoring three goals and providing seven assists.
