In the transfer market last summer, Liverpool went all out to revamp their midfield squad. They acquired four midfielders, including Alexis Mac Allister, who have all become key players in the team. They have become a driving force in the race for the top spot in the Premier League.
With Curtis Jones and Harvey Elliott in their early 20s, as well as a number of promising prospects in the academy, there is no need to spend more money on midfielders. Nevertheless, there are constant reports that Liverpool are interested in a new midfield player.
According to HITC, Shakhtar Donetsk are preparing to sell in the summer transfer window regarding Ukrainian midfielder Georgiy Sudakov, who has been the subject of several reports of interest from Liverpool.
In addition to Liverpool, several Premier League clubs, including Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal, are also tracking the player, which could lead to a battle for the attacking midfielder, who has scored seven goals in 27 games this season.
It is said that £128 million is set as a release fee, which is not easy to come up with even for the richest clubs. Chelsea and Manchester City can provide it, but it is difficult to spend a lot of money on it from a financial fair play perspective.
On the other hand, the minimum amount for a release for less than the same amount is set at £35 million or not. The transfer fee is too far apart, but negotiations could be settled between £35 million and £128 million.
The 21-year-old midfielder has played in the Champions League and Europa League, but will he step up this summer in the first place? And which club will the promising young Ukrainian talent move to…?
