Sander Berge to cost Liverpool £25million as Reds linked with midfielder

Genk midfielder Sander Berge is being linked with Liverpool by Norwegian outlet VG (h/t Liverpool Echo).

The 21-year-old has faced us twice in the Champions League this season and put up a decent showing in the games.

The midfielder has 18 months left on his current deal and the report claims that he would cost Liverpool £25million to land him.

VG (h/t Liverpool Echo) claims that Liverpool are pushing for a move to sign Berge after Fabinho picked up an injury.

The Brazilian damaged ankle ligaments in the draw against Napoli, and will be out of action till the New Year at least.

Berge is one of the rising stars in European football and is now a regular for the Norway international side too.

Liverpool to make moves in the winter window?

The Reds didn’t spend much in the summer and should have some money to spend in January.

We have a stacked midfielder with Adam Lallana, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain fighting for regular starts too.

James Milner, Jordan Henderson, Georginio Wijnaldum and Lallana can play in Fabinho’s role. However, they aren’t a match for all that the Brazilian provides in the midfield.

Our results in the coming two months could be huge in deciding our moves in the winter window.

Should we remain at the top of the league with a huge lead, it will be difficult for Jurgen Klopp to move for another fresh face. Especially, if Fabinho returns to action by early January.
