Liverpool 'make contact' with €60m star | OneFootball

Contact made with Takefusa Kubo

Over at Real Sociedad, the Japanese 23-year-old has a very uncertain future this summer.

His intentions to remain with the Basque team, but the club's manager has since left which is making him doubt everything and assess his options before he commits to staying put for next season.

Liverpool have been lingering around the possibility of signing Kubo and last month, it was reported that he had put in his transfer request. Given the news about Martin Zubimendi joining Arsenal, it is plausible to suggest that the right-winger might also be on the move this summer.

According to AS, he is now set to change his agent and once that's all sorted, which is expected to be later this week, the player and his representation will sit down and to discuss his future might.

The report claims: "The Premier League keeps knocking on his door, primarily Liverpool and Arsenal".

As such, while Salah's short-term future is no longer a problem, we could potentially see Kubo join the Reds anyway in order to learn from the Egyptian King before he goes on to succeed him.
