Liverpool are reportedly preparing to make a move to sign Ryan Gravenberch, with the Bayern Munich midfielder open to a move to Anfield.
According to the Mirror, the Reds are ready to strike for the 21-year-old talent in the coming days, with Liverpool confident that they can secure a deal for Gravenberch in what could be their second signing of the summer transfer window.
Gravenberch is due to represent the Netherlands at the U-21 Euros this week, a competition Liverpool will likely have representatives as with some of Europe’s best and brightest talents due to travel to Georgia and Romania to compete in the competition.
With an asking price of £43m according to TuttoMercatoWeb, Bayern are eager to keep hold of Gravenberch despite hardly using the former Ajax man last season. And a move to Liverpool is seemingly appealing for the youngster this summer.
Indeed, Liverpool are in the midst over overhauling their midfield options, and Gravenberch’s age and versatility could make the Dutch international an ideal signing for the Reds, as well as a perfect player for Jurgen Klopp to mould into his dream image
With the U-21 Euros starting this week, eyes will be drawn on those who looked primed to light up the competition, with Gravenberch already an early favourite to be named Player of the Tournament as the Dutch look to cause a stir. And for Liverpool, they have to move fast for the Bayern star.
As we know, Gravenberch is a player who could be perfect for Liverpool ahead of their new era under Klopp. And with the Reds now looking to make a move for the midfielder, time is of the essence if the Anfield side want to get the best deal possible for the 21-year-old talent.
