According to Daily Briefing, the German team is ready to sell their star this summer.
Liverpool ‘s defensive problems have been exposed for a long time. Virgil van Dijk, although still a player in top form, is well over 30 and Joel Matip’s impending departure as a free agent adds to the urgency in this area.
Besides, Ibrahima Konate has played quite impressively but is quite susceptible to injuries, so they need another classy center-back to strengthen their defense.
Liverpool’s target.
British media revealed that Liverpool is paying attention to Bayer Leverkusen star Odilon Kossounou. The Ivory Coast player is highly appreciated for his agility, good tackling and ability to handle the ball with his feet.
According to Daily Briefing, Kossounou’s refusal to extend his contract with Bayer Leverkusen has opened up an opportunity for The Kop. With the contract between the two sides only running until 2026, the German club may be willing to let him go for around 45 million euros, a figure that Liverpool can negotiate.
