Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is eager on landing the signature of Wolves forward player Adama Traore in whom the German has a long-standing interest following his exploits at the Molineux.
Traore endured a patchy run of form in front of the goal last season but the pacy Spaniard remains a major threat going forward for opposition defenders in the Premier League.
With Wolves understood to be seeking a £30 million bid to part ways with Traore in this summer’s transfer window, there is talk doing the rounds as of late that Klopp could be willing to sanction a move for the winger who will be a tremendous addition to the Anfield camp.
Roberto Firmino did not have the best of spells in the final third of the pitch across the last campaign and with doubts over Mohamad Salah’s long-term future on Merseyside, Klopp is believed to be on the hunt for attacking reinforcements.
Fabrizio Romano, while appearing on Don Robbie’s YouTube channel, has claimed that Klopp remains keen on signing Traore this summer but Liverpool will need to offload some players before making an approach for the Wolves first-teamer.
“There are a lot of links about him. We’re talking about a fantastic player.”
“The links about Liverpool are because Jurgen Klopp is a big fan of the player. He thinks Traore would be perfect for Liverpool.
“I’m told there are no negotiations between Liverpool and Wolves. It’s because Liverpool first have to sell players
“They’re working on it and then they want to sign a new attacking player and a new midfielder if they have the right opportunity in August.
“Klopp likes the player but there are no negotiations between the two clubs. There isn’t something imminent for Liverpool as of today.”
