Report: Jurgen Klopp gives Liverpool green light to sign French star playing in Ligue 1

Liverpool receive the ‘green light’ to sign Khephren Thuram

Liverpool fans may have something exciting to look forward to in the upcoming winter transfer window, as reports continue to suggest that the Reds remain the frontrunners to secure the services of Khephren Thuram.

The latest update on the situation indicates that Jurgen Klopp has given the green light for the pursuit of the French midfielder, aiming to add the final piece to his midfield puzzle.

Italian sources initially touted Liverpool as the favourites in the race for Thuram, and now, with Klopp’s approval, the player could well and truly join the Reds over the January transfer window if all goes well.

TEAMtalk via ECHO that Jurgen Klopp has greenlit a move for the Frenchman. The Reds’ boss has instructed Anfield decision-makers to make a move for the talented midfielder, signalling the club’s intent to secure Thuram‘s signature.

Thuram to the Reds?

The potential cost of this midfield reinforcement stands estimated at £38.8m and that fee for someone like Thuram is surely decent considering how bonkers the current market situation is.

Thuram has certainly been garnering attention for his performances in Ligue 1, and Klopp’s interest indicates a strategic move to enhance Liverpool’s options in the middle of the park. However, whether or not Thuram’s profile is the kind Liverpool actually need to sign at this moment in time is still a question.

If the pieces align, Liverpool could welcome a new face to the squad, signalling the club’s commitment to staying competitive on multiple fronts.
