Liverpool wants to do everything they can to add a new midfielder to the selection in the coming transfer period. Slot and associates hoped for the arrival of Martín Zubimendi from Real Sociedad last summer. Due to the failure of the transfer of the Spanish international, Ryan Gravenberch was given the opportunity under Slot at Liverpool and he seized it. However, the intention seems to be to attract a midfielder next winter, with Kökçü also on the wish list.
The same applies to Reijnders. The midfielder is an important pillar at AC Milan and is in discussions with the Italian top club about a new contract. Yet it cannot be ruled out that Reijnders, 26 years old, is in his last months at San Siro. Liverpool has the nineteen-time international high on their wish list and is currently looking at options to make his arrival possible in the coming transfer period.
Chiesa's departure should contribute to this. The attacker came over from Juventus last summer, but has barely managed to impress in the Liverpool shirt. The 27-year-old Italian did not play more than 78 minutes in 3 games for the English top club and seems likely to leave next winter. Liverpool paid €12 million for his arrival in August. If Chiesa becomes part of the Reijnders deal, Liverpool will probably have to pay a considerable sum. Reijnders currently represents an Estimated Transfer Value of 23.3 million euros.
Reijnders was taken over from AZ for nineteen million euros last summer and developed very quickly in Milan. In his debut season, the right foot played no fewer than fifty matches the Rossoneriin which he scored four times and provided four assists. This year, the score stands at three goals and two assists after twelve matches.
