A media report invites Liverpool to consider pursuing Inter Milan midfielder Kristjan Asllani to fill their midfield gap.
The Reds have gradually lost their midfield stalwarts who guided them towards Premier League and Champions League honors during Jurgen Klopp’s reign at the club.
The latest to leave Anfield Road was Thiago Alcantara who retired following a long bout of injuries.
Therefore, Liverpool are now searching the market for new midfielders who can help Arne Slot kickstart a revival.
The club particularly needs a deep-lying playmaker who can operate in front of the defense.
Therefore, The Athletic (via FcInter1908) proposed a series of candidates for the role, and the list includes Asllani.
As the source notes, the Albanian only started six Serie A matches last term, but is now ready to take his game to another level.
The 22-year-old rose to the scene during his time at Empoli, prompting a high-profile transfer to San Siro.
Press Report Urges Believes Liverpool Should Pursue Inter Milan Midfielder Kristjan Asllani
The budding midfielder struggled for playing time during his first campaign with the Nerazzurri. But last term, he earned more minutes, although he remained an understudy for Hakan Calhanoglu.
The Albania international is gradually cementing himself as an up-and-coming Regista. He possesses brilliant technical abilities and is able to play with both feet.
Asllani’s contract with the Italian champions is valid until June 2027. Transfermarkt estimates his value at 18 million euros.
While it remains to be seen if Liverpool will decide to pursue the young midfielder, Inter might not be too keen on selling him.
