Liverpool will need to sign a top right winger if Mohamed Salah leaves the club, and Donyell Malen’s name has come up again.
Sport Bild reported in September that Jurgen Klopp wants to sign the Dutch international from his former club, Borussia Dortmund.
Todo Fichajes of Spain recently reported that the German manager has set his sights on luring the Oranje playmaker, with Salah’s future at Anfield uncertain.
According to the report, Dortmund values their prized asset at around £50 million, and Liverpool will sit down and negotiate the fee with the Bundesliga club.
Malen was a hit for PSV Eindhoven in the Netherlands before moving to Germany. He scored 10 goals and provided 8 assists in all competitions for BvB last season.
The 24-year-old can play on either flank or as a center forward, but he has mostly excelled as a right winger.
So far in the current season, the 26-cap international has started 12 games for Edin Terzic, scoring four goals and providing two assists.
Mohamed Salah, on the other hand, has directly contributed 14 goals in as many appearances for the Reds this season.
Klopp requires a world-class replacement for the Egyptian. Do you believe Donyell Malen has the ability to improve Anfield’s already fantastic attack?
Should Liverpool spend £50 million on him?
