Depends if he wants to sit on the bench. Same for Robbo really. He can do a job just not how it’s been though. His performance last week showed he is still a good player on a weeks rest.
We would have to buy a sub regardless if we sold him as Tsimikas is likely to go.
Noise about Kelleher and Leeds Utd, similar type of noise is surrounding Tsimikas going there also… Ok Ok, silly season has started early, but it could be a good move if it happens.
At the end of the day, Tsimikas has never lit Anfield ablaze with his performances, but he has never let us down either…
Would be good to see him playing regularly, for a fanbase that would likely to take to him…
And today’s CM target is … Liverpool are set to rival Real Madrid and Barcelona for £60m-rated Crystal Palace and England midfielder Adam Wharton, 21. (Daily Mail - subscription required, external)
I’m sure we could do better than Nkunku.
A move for Chelsea’s French striker Christopher Nkunku, 27, could also be part of Liverpool’s summer plans. (Footmercato - in French, external)
And I’m sure Harvey could do better than Wolves. Wolves are stepping up their efforts to sign Liverpool’s English midfielder Harvey Elliott, 22. (GiveMesport, external)
Nkunku seems unlikely but there were loose links when he was at Leipzig and if he measured up to our needs then (ie was rated by our analysts) and is now undervalued, maybe there’s a chance now.
I read the whole article, which was more about Wharton’s growing up (it’s a nice one, actually). It only says in passing that Liverpool and Real Madrid are monitoring him. I’m not saying it isn’t true, just that this article barely reflects on it. For what it’s worth, I rate him, though I’d be wary of his injuries and I don’t really think that, even if he was Man of Steel, Liverpool would be able to afford buying such an expensive player in position where they already have Gravenberch and, to an extent, Mac Allister. We also don’t know what happens with Bajčetić…
His injuries last season were pretty serious, which would be my only concern, but if the deal is right he could be next seasons lucky dip attempt (like Chiesa this)
There weren’t any references of that lot in this Daily Mail article but thanks for pointing it out, of course. That said, I think there were some tentative links with Wharton last summer but I would have to do some digging to remember who reported them.
