Liverpool are reportedly showing interest in signing Johan Bakayoko in the January transfer window. PSV Eindhoven are also ready to sell him for the right price.

Whereas, Johan Bakayoko also wants to make a move to the bigger Premier League clubs. Hence, he also rejected a move to Brentford in the summer transfer window.

LIVERPOOL AND JOHAN BAKAYOKO TRANSFER LINKS FULL STORY

According to reports, Liverpool are showing interest in signing Johan Bakayoko in the January transfer window. The report also claims that the Reds want him signed early in the January transfer window. Hence, the Premier League giants have done their groundwork on the Belgian player. The agent of Johan Bakayoko is also aware of the interest.

However, Liverpool have not contacted his agent for the personal terms. Although, negotiating personal terms is not a problem. PSV are also ready to sell him for the right price. The Dutch giants also accepted a 30 million bid from Brentford. However, the player rejected the move as he wanted to play in the Champions League group stage with PSV Eindhoven.

THE PREMIER LEAGUE GIANTS ARE ALREADY PLANNING THEIR FUTURE WITHOUT MOHAMED SALAH

According to reports, Liverpool received bids of over 200 million for Mohamed Salah. Saudi giants Al Ittihad made the bids. The player also received a mega proposal on personal terms. Hence, the move appealed to him. However, the Premier League giants immediately rejected the bid. Mohamed Salah also did not push for the move because the bid arrived on deadline day.

However, there is expectation that Liverpool will again receive bids from the Saudi clubs in the January transfer window. Hence, the Premier League giants should remain ready with the plan to spend the money in the right way. Therefore, the potential signing of Johan Bakayoko makes sense. Whereas, the Reds are also monitoring other wingers.

Liverpool have the history of using the money in the right way. They used the money from the sale of Coutinho to sign the likes of Alison and Virgil Van Dijk. Hence, it is clear that the Premier League giants have the capability to replace world class players in their squad.
