Last weekend, Liverpool traveled to Stamford Bridge with Alexis Mac Allister as their only training midfielder. On arrival, a draw (1-1), which only highlighted the problems of the Reds in the midfield. Fabinho, Jordan Henderson, Naby Keïta or even James Milner gone, Jürgen Klopp will quickly have to find solutions, other than Moisés Caicedo and Roméo Lavia, who have opted for Chelsea.
And justly. The Athletic announces that Liverpool are close to an agreement with Stuttgart to finalize the recruitment of Wataru Endo. The Japanese, captain of his club, is one of the only satisfactions of last season with 6 goals and 5 assists in 40 appearances in total. The midfielder was even allowed to travel to Merseyside to finalize the transfer. At 30, the latter represents an astonishing lead for the Reds, who no longer really have a choice after having missed many targets lately.
