Reds reportedly interested in move for €20 million midfielder before Thursday evening’s deadline

Liverpool could move for Besiktas and Turkey midfielder Dorukhan Tokoz before the English transfer window closes on Thursday evening, according to journalist Firat Gunayer.

It is claimed that the Reds are one of three English sides who are interested in the 23-year-old, who plays as a number six and is adept at breaking up the play. He has also played at right-back earlier in his career – a little like Fabinho.

Tokoz, who has made five appearances for his country so far, has a couple of years left on his contract and Sabah believe he is valued at around €20 million.

Adding another body into an already crowded midfield doesn’t seem to make a lot of sense to us – with Marko Grujic out on loan because he would not get game time, signing someone else for the central three would be an odd move.

If Jurgen Klopp was desperate to add another midfielder, he would surely have done so earlier in the window than this.
