Why Liverpool signing Milot Rashica would be a sensible move

According to a report by Bild (h/t The Sun), Liverpool are keen on signing Milot Rashica from Werder Bremen once the summer transfer window commences. The report further states that the player’s red-hot form has not slipped past Jurgen Klopp.

The Liverpool boss has enjoyed some brilliant times lately, winning the Champions League last season and also picking up the Club World Cup. To sustain the momentum, they need to make smart additions in the summer and the 23-year-old would be a wise option.

The £31m-rated attacker’s team might be staring at the threat of relegation from the Bundesliga but his tally of 14 goals scored across competitions speaks volumes.

A versatile campaigner, Rashica can be utilized anywhere across the midfield and has played on the left wing this season. Considering the number of big names in Klopp’s squad right now, a talented attacker like Rashica – who could also provide support as a utility man – would be a great move.

The Sun further claims that Adam Lallana could be on the verge of exiting Anfield in the summer. If that happens, Klopp would be smart to sign Rashica once the summer window opens.

As of now, Liverpool are on an unending high. The Reds are on course to win their first league title in years and look like solid contenders to defend their Champions League trophy as well. With names like Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino in the attack, it goes without saying that Klopp has built a dream team of sorts.

However, competing in multiple competitions will have a long-term toll on exhaustion levels. In fact, the Reds have already fielded two of their youngest teams in recent cup matches to prevent the first-team stars from burning out.
