Liverpool target Florian Neuhaus is believed to be close to the exit door at Borussia Monchengladbach after his recent struggles, according to the club’s sporting director Max Eberl.
The Germany international midfield talent was rumoured to be one of the top names on the wishlist for Jurgen Klopp this summer to replace the outgoing maestro Gini Wijnaldum who made the move to Paris Saint-Germain.
Neuhaus had been a star turn for his side last season in the Bundesliga and had attracted attention from some of the biggest clubs across Europe in the summer transfer window with Liverpool keeping close tabs on the midfielder.
The 2021-22 campaign, however, has not been an enjoyable one so far for the 24-year-old with Neuhaus frustrated over his lack of regular minutes out there on the pitch under his coach Marco Rose.
Borussia Monchengladbach director Max Eberl has admitted while speaking to Gladbach Live that Neuhaus’s situation will be dealt with upon his return from the international break where he is turning out for the German national team.
“Flo gets all the backing from us, just like all the other players.”
“Nobody is preferred. One thing is clear: The Borussia Monchengladbach club is above all else.
“It’s not a big issue for me. Something can slip out of the emotion. Perhaps Flo felt something at one point or another, wished for a different course. That’s legitimate.
“We’ll talk to Florian Neuhaus in peace when he comes back from the national team. As we always do, we will deal with it in a very matter-of-fact way.”
