Liverpool linked with surprise January swoop for midfielder who’s a reported Everton target

Liverpool have been linked with a surprise move to end Aaron Ramsey’s Italian nightmare.

Jurgen Klopp reportedly wants to bolster reinforcements in midfied and have more options to rotate.

Background

Ramsey left Arsenal for Juventus in the summer of 2019 but has endured a tough time with injuries.

This season, he has fallen out of Massimiliano Allegri’s plans at the Old Lady - despite being on a supposed salary of £400,000 per week.

Ramsey has made just five appearances in all competitions for the Serie A outfit.

The 30-year-old is surplus to requirements at Juve and could be offloaded when the January transfer window opens.

What’s been said

According to Fichajes, Liverpool could look to bring Ramsey back to the Premier League.

It’s claimed that Anfield boss Klopp is wary his squad is not as strong as Chelsea’s nor Manchester City’s in the race for the top-light title.

The Reds have had injuries in the middle of the park this season.

Naby Keita, Curtis Jones and Harvey Elliott are currently sidelined. Meanwhile, Thiago Alcantara, Jordan Henderson and James Milner have also had periods when they’ve been absent.

That’s why Klopp supposedly wants Ramsey as a solution to add strength in depth.

The Wales international was linked with Merseyside rivals Everton earlier this campaign, while reports in Italy suggest he has snubbed January moves to both Crystal Palace and Wolves.
