Liverpool aims to sign Jonathan Tah, disrupting Barcelona
Liverpool is being urged to step in and disrupt Barcelona's plans to sign Jonathan Tah this summer. The request comes as the club grapples with finding a replacement for Virgil van Dijk, whose contract is nearing its end. Van Dijk has been a key player for Liverpool since joining in 2018, helping the team secure significant trophies. Van Dijk's future has become uncertain, with clubs like PSG and Bayern Munich reportedly interested in him. Recent reports suggest he may leave Liverpool for a new challenge in LaLiga. If he departs without signing a new contract, Liverpool could lose their captain for free. In light of his possible exit, Liverpool is exploring defenders to succeed him. While names like Loic Bade and Nico Schlotterbeck have emerged, journalist Christian Falk suggests that Tah, who is also a free agent this summer, could be the ideal choice for Liverpool. His similar playing style to Van Dijk and his extensive experience could make him a valuable addition. Meanwhile, Liverpool remains optimistic about Mohamed Salah agreeing to a new deal at the club, despite recent performance setbacks. Reports indicate that Salah is close to a contract agreement, which would bolster Liverpool's efforts to strengthen their forwards next season. There are concerns about Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz potentially leaving, with Jota attracting interest from other clubs. As Liverpool faces important decisions regarding player contracts and transfers, Tah's speed and defensive skills could prove advantageous for their lineup, particularly if Van Dijk moves on.
