Liverpool could make January move for 21-year-old Norwegian after Fabinho injury

Liverpool could move for Sander Berge after Fabinho injury

Liverpool could be forced to move in the January window for Sander Berge, according to reports (h/t Mirror).

The Norwegian has impressed for Genk this season and has been linked with the Reds recently (h/t Mirror).

Liverpool saw Berge in action during the two Champions League clashes this season, and Jurgen Klopp also spoke with him during one game.

The 21-year-old midfielder has just 18 months left on his contract and seems set to leave the Belgian side (h/t Mirror).

Fabinho picked up an injury during the 1-1 draw against Napoli. The midfielder is expected to be out till the New Year but it could be further than that too (h/t Mirror).

The Reds could be interested in a January swoop for Berge but Napoli and Chelsea are also keen on the 21-year-old (h/t Mirror).

Liverpool have options for Fabinho

Not many can do the same role as Fabinho but the Reds have options to replace the Brazilian.

Georginio Wijnaldum has played in a deeper role before while Adam Lallana has been tested in that position this season.

The Reds can also mix their midfield up to include Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and make it more attacking.

Losing Fabinho for the busiest part of the season is a blow, but injuries are part of the game.
