As Liverpool are linked with big money moves for Jude Bellingham and Enzo Fernández, our interest in Sofyan Amrabat could well be the search for a cheaper alternative to the other options, or even an additional player who could be signed alongside a prominent name. .
Thanks to our exclusive interview with Foot Mercato’s Аnas Bakhkhar, Empire of the Kop was informed how much it would cost Jurgen Klopp to sign the Fiorentina player in upcoming transfer windows:
“Before this World Cup, Amrabat was valued at 10 million euros, which would be around 9 million pounds, I think that his performances in the World Cup would mean that Fiorentina would ask for much more and could want 30 or 40 million euros minimum for open”. he talks to the player.

“Of the players available for around 30 or 40 million euros, Amrabat would be a perfect fit for Liverpool.
“We have heard about Jude Bellingham and Enzo Fernández, Bellingham is linked with many other clubs such as Manchester City. Enzo Fernández has been linked with Barcelona. Liverpool can compete financially with Barcelona but not with Manchester City, so Amrabat would be the perfect mix between a good price and good performance on the pitch.”
The 26-year-old is certainly a more affordable option for our midfield and if we lose the likes of Naby Keita, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and James Milner this summer, he could be a good fit for the team.
However, seeing as the Dutch-born midfielder’s price has quadrupled since the start of the World Cup, it’s best to wait to see if his good Qatari form can continue in Serie A, before trying to cut a deal. .
With no major injury concerns and Arthur Melo expected to return sooner than expected, we don’t really have a need to rush to close a deal that could be a bad financial move in the long run.
So it may be best to reassess in the summer and see if we need to add to our team after our inbound and outbound business becomes clearer.
