Liverpool to fund bid for 20-year-old star by selling summer signing

Liverpool are interested in signing Christian Pulisic from Borussia Dortmund and could sell Fabinho to help fund the move, according to the Mirror.

Pulisic is one of the hottest properties in the Bundesliga, and the report adds that Pulisic is out of contract in 2020.

The American has don pretty well this season and has helped Dortmund to the top of the league.

The report adds that the Bundesliga club wants to cash in on the 20-year-old as Pulisic’s contract talks have hit a roadblock.

Chelsea have emerged as the biggest rivals for the American’s signature, as per the report, and one Anfield source was quoted (h/t Mirror) as saying:

“Having watched Christian develop there is no way Jurgen is going to back off now. He knows he is a talent who can light up the Premier League.”

Fabinho hasn’t looked great in all his games for the Reds, but the Brazilian needs time to bed in at Anfield. We saw Andy Robertson take time last season, and hopefully, we don’t sell the midfielder by making a rash decision.

Jurgen Klopp always gives time to players as they adjust to a team and we should see the best of Fabinho before the season ends.

Pulisic is a quality player and someone who would do really well for the Reds, should we sign him. Klopp knows the talent well from his time at Dortmund and the winter window could have one huge transfer coming in from Germany.
