With the Reds preparing to face Leicester City at Anfield on Friday, many fans will be hoping that we get to see the 23-year-old introduced to the home crowd, before possibly even playing Brentford on January 2.
Although the transfer window doesn’t open until the start of the new year, if all the medical and formal issues are sorted out in time, we could see the PSV player spring into action.
Given the injury concerns at the moment with Luis Diaz, Diogo Jota and Bobby Firmino, Jurgen Klopp may need to use the new man immediately.
Let’s hope all the controls go well and we don’t have another Nabil Fekir on our hands!
With the recent run of results and the prospect of the first match at our home stadium in so long, we don’t need much of a boost for the mood, but seeing a new signing is sure to take the roof off and set the night off to a good start.
