Liverpool fans will be eagerly awaiting how Arne Slot lines up his first team in pre-season but also with what players he may want to bring to the club this summer, with one name believed to be on our radar.
As reported by Sky Germany (translated): ‘Liverpool FC from the Premier League are among those interested in [Karim] Adeyemi… If an offer of over 30 million euros is made, Dortmund would consider selling him.’

With this being far from headline worthy form, the 22-year-old’s valuation of €30 million is then not a massive surprise from the team defeated in last season’s Champions League final.
A start in this final for Karim Adeyemi though shows that he is certainly able to play at the very highest level and should be able to cope with the pressure of Anfield.

The only other concern would be the abundance of left sided players we have already in a red shirt, making this a deal certainly worth considering but not rushing into.
