According to Caught Offside, Liverpool would have to bid £58.9 million to get Juventus ace Gleison Bremer this summer.
The Reds have been fairly quiet in the transfer window, but it is expected that they will strengthen their squad before the start of the next season by signing a new defender who is high on Arne Slot’s wish list.
According to CO, Liverpool has identified Bremer as a genuine contender to replace Virgil van Dijk, who has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia.
The Merseyside club has already contacted the Bianconeri to inquire about the details of obtaining the South American’s signature, and the Italian club has stated that they want £58.9 million [€70 million] to sell the 27-year-old.
It was previously claimed that Liverpool made an initial £50 million [€60 million] offer to recruit Bremer, but it appears that they may need to enhance their offer slightly to entice the defender to Anfield this summer.
According to the source, Liverpool is not just looking to strengthen their defense; they are also considering enticing a new midfielder and potentially purchasing a wide attacker.
Teun Koopmeiners was their top choice, but Slot’s side was put off by Atalanta’s exorbitant asking price. As a result, they have identified Quinten Timber as a major target, and Slot values the player because they previously worked together at Feyenoord.
Liverpool made touch with Federico Chiesa to bolster the flanks, but have chosen not to pursue a deal after being put off by his high wage demands.
Bremer made 36 Serie A appearances last season, helping Juventus retain 15 clean sheets as they qualified for the UEFA Champions League.
Furthermore, the Samba star preserved three clean sheets and performed admirably in the Coppa Italia final, helping the Bianconeri win the cup.
In your opinion, is Gleison Bremer capable of replacing Virgil van Dijk at Liverpool?
