Liverpool have missed out on one of their biggest targets of the summer as Borussia Dortmund confirmed the signing of Mahmoud Dahoud from Borussia Monchengladbach.
The German midfielder had been linked with a move to the Reds from last season and the club even reportedly failed to get him in the winter window. Dortmund, Jurgen Klopp’s ex-club, will be ecstatic with the move as they signed another young prospect.
They already have the likes of Ousmane Dembele, Christian Pulisic and Emre Mor, amongst others and Dahoud certainly will add a lot of quality to their midfield with Julian Weigl in the line-up as well.

Liverpool fans were extremely disappointed with the loss of the transfer target, especially with Dahoud not costing a lot of money. They certainly voiced their displeasure on Twitter and a lot of questions will be raised on the big talk that Klopp and FSG have been bleating out for a while.
Just saw Dahoud’s gone to Dortmund. Another signing we’ve missed out on, not surprised.

Does anyone think Zielinski and Dahoud are sad that they didn’t move to LFC last summer?

Can’t believe how BVB can pull this stuff off. Everyone talking about how Dahoud rejected LFC, but he also rejected Chelsea, City and Barca.

Dahoud added to the others that we failed to get for Klopp..

What pleasure do people gain from being constantly negative? We get it. You’re upset we missed out on Dahoud. This happens. Move on. #LFC pic.twitter.com/DH4TSbERKF

R.I.P. Dahoud-themed Liverpool accounts.
You will be remembered next to Papadopoulos avis and Konoplyanka handles.

“Liverpools are expected to renew their interest this Summer”
“Gladbach wouldn’t sell in 2016, but LFC are now confident in signing Dahoud” https://t.co/VDKg5DwtyI— ㅤ (@Sadioesque) March 30, 2017
Dahoud to Dortmund, have that sinking feeling that this will happen to #LFC targets all summer. Hope I am wrong.
