Liverpool eye Jude Bellingham and Yves Bissouma ahead of the 2022/23 season
According to Fichajes (h/t Liverpool Echo), Liverpool are keen on adding Jude Bellingham and Yves Bissouma to their squad ahead of next season.

Jurgen Klopp is sold on the player’s performances and remains keen to build a team around him for the future. Not often does one see a player get named “the pearl of the Jurgen Klopp project.”
The 18-year-old is seen as one of Dortmund’s most valuable assets. Given his potential, it remains to be seen what it will take for Liverpool to land him.
Bellingham is however not the only midfielder on the Reds’ radar. Liverpool are also interested in Brighton midfielder Bissouma who continues to perform in the Premier League.
At 25, the Seagulls ace is ready to take his game to the next level. Klopp could very well turn him into a world-class player that he has threatened to develop into of late.
