Oliver bond who mentioned VVD deal said goretzka is next in response to someone asking who is next... who knows
Would happily have him as an option on the bench, not as versatile as someone like Chamberlain though.
I know this is a mute point now, but did/have we tapped up VVD then or not. I thought we were waiting for an invite? Seen as how we had to make our apology public should the invite not have been made public? Also how are Barca avoiding the whole tapping up thing with couts? Thought i had grip on tapping up but not got a clue now?
Taping up is only a problem if selling club don't get fee they want for their player That about sums up tapping up lol

Klopp eyes free transfer 10:00: Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is hopeful of securing Leon Goretzka’s services on a pre-contract agreement next month, according to reports. The Reds kicked off the January transfer window with a world record fee for a defender when they agreed to pay £75million to Southampton for Van Dijk earlier this week. And despite the huge outlay by Liverpool, their business may not end at signing Van Dijk. That’s according to German newspaper Bild, who claim the Reds are willing to offer Goretzka a better deal currently on the table from his current club Schalke. The 22-year-old’s deal runs out in the summer and he is yet to commit on his future.

I just realised that formally nothing can be signed til jan 1 according to rules so thats when this will be announced. "From January 1, foreign clubs are able to hold formal negotiations with the 22-year-old, who has netted 18 goals in 127 appearances for the German side." Thats can ****ed off then nicely. now we just need timo horn for 5mil @Tobes and a no 6 type controlling playmaker and we are good. A free like this is great business.

If true, this would be a great signing for so many reasons. Also, I really hope we let Woodburn go out on loan. Given our FA cup tie against Everton and the likelihood of us battling for top 4 right until the end, I just can't see him getting any games for us atm.
