DONE DEAL: Date Set For 21 Year Old Starlet To Be Signed At Liverpool.

The 21 Year Old  has already begun the process of joining Liverpool’s midfield this summer.

According to rumors, Ryan Gravenberch, a midfielder for Bayern Munich, has been given the all-clear by Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp to join the Reds this summer.

After making a start with the signing of Alexis Mac Allister from Brighton and Hove Albion, the Reds are reportedly intent on strengthening their midfield ranks before the start of the upcoming season.

There appears to be a potential that Liverpool will move Gravenberch to Merseyside after acquiring Mac Allister, despite the Dutchman’s failure to impress since joining Bayern Munich from Ajax last summer.

According to The Mirror, he is already eager to leave the Allianz Arena in pursuit of a fresh challenge, with Liverpool reportedly pursuing a move for his signature in the coming weeks.

According to reports, Liverpool is ‘advanced’ in their interest in Gravenberch, with club executives ready to support Klopp in his pursuit of the 21-year-old this summer.

The athlete, however, has already stated that a decision on his future won’t be made until the under-21 European Champions, which will conclude at the start of next month.

When he returned from Georgia and Romania after the European Championship, he remarked, “I haven’t actually talked to the coach about that yet. Then we will see how it goes. “I simply want to play more, ideally at Bayern Munich, but if not, then at a team where I can give my all.

“That is my preference because I don’t want to have another year like the one I’ve had now. One season like that is good, I really learned a lot, but I just want to play football.”

Bayern Munich recently wrapped up the signing of Konrad Laimer to push Gravenberch even further down the pecking order, while Thomas Tuchel is reportedly eager to add further quality to his midfield ranks between now and the start of next season.

However, it remains to be seen whether Liverpool will be able to take advantage of the situation by bringing the Dutchman to Anfield before the new campaign gets underway.

However, there is still a chance that Bayern Munich will try to hang onto Gravenberch for at least another season. Herbert Hainer, the club’s president, recently emphasized his appreciation for the former Ajax player despite his challenging first year in Germany.

He is a player who, in my opinion, is tremendously talented, Hainer told Bild. “We brought him because of it. Toward the end of the season, he played more. He’ll undoubtedly play more often in the future.

Jorg Schmadtke ‘lunges’ in to capture a promising Dane as Klopp authorizes an Italian raid in the transfer market for Liverpool

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has reportedly backed Jorg Schmadtke in his plan to bring a talented Denmark defender to Anfield, with Reds looking to the future.

The Merseysiders brought in the German as their new sporting director, albeit in an initial short-term basis. But that position will come under review by both parties once the summer window is over and should Liverpool be keen to extend.

The 59-year-old’s duties at Anfield will primarily focus on bolstering a midfield that has already been shorn of four players this summer. Indeed, with James Milner, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain all leaving as free agents, it is easy to forget that Juventus loanee Arthur Melo has also been sent back to where he came.

As such, Klopp wants to bring in at least three new midfield options this summer. And while Alexis Mac Allister ticks that first box off, Liverpool links to four other targets appears to have taken a drastic downturn.

However, Liverpool – as shown in previous windows – do like to bring in some of the best emerging young talent. That has been the case in recent windows with the likes of Sepp van den Berg, Calvin Ramsay, Kaide Gordon and – perhaps most successfully – Harvey Elliott all signing for modest fees.

Now Klopp has backed Schmadtke in a plan to raid Lecce for talented Danish left-back Patrick Dorgu.

The 18-year-old joined the Serie A side last summer, moving from FC Nordsjaelland in his native Denmark.

And while he is yet to debut for their senior squad, he made 38 appearances for their second string, Lecce Primavera.

As a result of his fine performances, Lecce moved to recently hand him a new deal to summer 2027.

Liverpool ready to snatch Patrick Dorgu

However, his time in Italy looks likely to end after just 12 months, per reports in the Italian media.

Indeed, according to Calciomercato, Dorgu has been watched by Liverpool scouts on several occasions in recent months. And they claim the Merseysiders are ready to ‘lunge in’ for the left-back after doing his due dilligence on the teenager.

The Reds will reportedly have no issues striking a compensation package with Lecce for his signing. And it seems the move to Anfield has now been given the green light.

The Reds have some solid options in the left-back department. Indeed, Konstantinos Tsimikas provides solid cover for regular Andrew Robertson.

But with the latter now 29 and his game very much reliant on pace and fitness, Liverpool are doing themselves no harm at all by looking to the future.

Dorgu, who holds equal Danish and Nigerian citizenship, has been capped by Denmark U19s and is rated as one of the country’s brightest prospects.
