Liverpool “won’t give up” on pursuit of Bayern Munich’s Ryan Gravenberch

The name, Ryan Gravenberch has seen itself on Liverpool FC’s radar for quite some time, a fact that underscores the club’s meticulous approach to talent scouting. Gravenberch’s first year with Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich remained marked by challenges and adjustments. Yet, Liverpool’s interest in him remains steadfast, a testament to their belief in his potential and their vision for the future of the team.

However, Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp are refusing to give up on signing Gravenberch, according to German publication Bild via ECHO. While his initial year in Germany may not have yielded the desired results, Gravenberch’s talent is undeniable. His style of play, characterized by his composure on the ball, ability to dictate the tempo of the game, and penchant for making crucial passes, aligns seamlessly with Liverpool’s footballing philosophy.

Klopp’s brand of high-pressing, dynamic football relies on midfielders who can not only control the flow of the game but also contribute offensively. Gravenberch’s profile ticks all these boxes, making him a tantalizing prospect for the Reds.

The Reds are prepared to invest up to £20m to secure Gravenberch’s services. The timing of Gravenberch’s potential move to Anfield is particularly intriguing. Just last summer, the midfielder made the bold leap to Bayern Munich, hoping to carve his niche among the Bundesliga giants. The fact that he remained an unused substitute for Bayern’s recent 4-0 victory over Werder Bremen speaks to the hurdles he’s currently navigating.

Gravenberch to the Reds?

At the Reds, on the other hand, the player could seamlessly fit into our plans, and establish himself as a starter within a month or two’s time. The Reds have consistently shown an eye for nurturing raw talent and helping players fulfil their potential within Klopp’s system.

While the midfield was much more secure against Bournemouth than against Chelsea, there is still room for improvement.

The prospect of Gravenberch (21) donning the iconic red jersey at Anfield symbolizes the fusion of promise and ambition that defines Liverpool’s identity.
