Man Utd and Liverpool both need a new midfielder in this summer’s transfer window.
Man Utd started the new season with a hard-fought victory with a score of 1-0 against Wolves.
It is not difficult to see that the midfield of Man Utd is quite thin. As a result, they had to face 23 shots on goal from the away team.
Mason Mount and Bruno Fernandes often surged, leaving Casemiro alone against the Wolves midfield.
Obviously, that arrangement isn’t right. Therefore, the Red Devils must definitely add a deep midfielder.
With Liverpool, they also did not have a smooth start when they only earned 1 point against Liverpool.
Coach Jurgen Klopp understands that he needs a holding midfielder, as a springboard for the duo of Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai to fly high.
Liverpool quickly reached an agreement to recruit Wataru Endo after losing Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia to Chelsea.
Initially, Ryan Gravenberch was Liverpool’s number one target.
Similarly, Sofyan Amrabat is rumored to move to Old Trafford. However, these two deals suddenly reversed.
Accordingly, Man Utd liked Gravenberch more. This player used to work with coach Erik ten Hag at Ajax. In contrast, Amrabat gradually lost patience with Man Utd, so he was ready to join Liverpool.
At that time, it is not excluded that Gravenberch will be a Man Utd man, and Amrabat will land at Anfield. The important thing is that both of these players are hungry to leave. Therefore, Man Utd and Liverpool can easily negotiate with the host team.
