da poker: Timo Werner has been linked with Liverpool for quite a while.
da bet sport: The big fat Liverpool quiz of 2019 – how much do you remember about the last year at Anfield?
The first reports emerged back in October, and there have been updates about him ever since. The latest one comes from Simon Johnson of The Athletic.
The journalist has said that the Germany international will not consider a move to Anfield when his €50million (£42.6m) comes into play. This is due to the fact that he believes there is no place for him to feature with Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino already the regulars up front.
The club’s supporters have been reacting in their droves to this news, and many have slammed the RB Leipzig striker’s attitude.
In all fairness, you can’t really disagree with that point of view. Mane, Firmino and Salah have already scored 35 goals between them this term, with just under half of the season remaining. Given that the Reds are top of the Premier League by 13 points, it would be a hard side to break into.
Others, though, believe there could be a spot for the former Stuttgart man were he to make the move.
With 23 goals in 25 matches already this season, the German is having a fantastic campaign, and on that kind of form, Klopp would surely be able to make some space for him in the team.
If this news is true, though, we will never know if he would have become a star at Anfield.
Elsewhere, Liverpool are interested in this youngster “worth €300m”.
