Liverpool ‘interested’ in £47m transfer as Andy Robertson price tag emerges | Football | Sport

Liverpool have just over a week remaining before the January transfer window slams shut. The Reds are yet to make any new signings, but there is still time for that to change. Arne Slot‘s squad have been linked with several potential targets and that is expected to continue as the deadline draws nearer.

Here’s a round-up of the latest transfer stories involving the Anfield giants…

Reds considering £47m swoop

Liverpool are reportedly considering a move for Borussia Dortmund defender Nico Schlotterbeck, who is valued by transfermarkt at around £47.7m.

Football Insider suggests the Reds have earmarked Schlotterbeck as a possible candidate to bolster their centre-back ranks, though any transfer would only materialise this summer at the earliest.

It’s claimed that Schlotterbeck might be obtainable at a discounted fee due to ongoing speculation surrounding the defender’s contract, which runs until the summer of 2027.

Liverpool could be compelled to enter the transfer market for a new central defender with Ibrahima Konate’s future also in doubt, as the France international’s current agreement expires at the end of the season.

Robertson price tag emerges

Liverpool have supposedly named their asking price for Andy Robertson as the full-back moves nearer to a switch to Tottenham.

Reports surfaced on Friday that Robertson was in Spurs’ sights, with his Anfield contract due to run out in the summer.

The Daily Mail have stated that Liverpool have a £5million total package in mind they would prefer to receive for Robertson’s services.

However, it’s unclear whether that will be the final sum agreed between the two clubs.

Robertson featured in Liverpool’s squad for their Premier League encounter against Bournemouth on Saturday evening, with the Reds returning to action on Wednesday night against Qarabag in the Champions League.
