European club in talks to sign Liverpool player who Jurgen Klopp called ‘absolutely insane’

A European club are holding talks over a move for a Liverpool player this summer, according to a recent report.

Liverpool’sꦗ new era under Arne Slot has begun and transfer plans are being made ahead of the fast approaching season in August.

🦋Like all Premier League, The Reds will have to move players out of the floor to facilitate incomings and with that said, they’re in talks to offload a player to a club on the continent.

Trabzonspor in talks to sign Nat Phillips

According to Turkish outlet , Trabzonspor are in talks to sign Liverpool centre-back Nat Phillips this summer.

🤡The Super Lig side, who finished third last term, have already contacted the 27-year-old, though, at this stage there has been no word on if he’d be open to a move.

🧔Trabzonspor are hopeful of completing a loan deal but that seems unlikely given Liverpool are thought to be looking for a sale.

ౠPhillips spent last season on loan at Celtic and Cardiff City, so evidently he’s not part of the club’s future plans.

꧟Leeds United have also been mooted as a potential destination in recent weeks.

Nat Phillips pricetag

Phillips has one year left on his contract at Anfield and as such, the Merseysiders are hopeful of sanctioning his sale for £8m.

⭕That’s expected to rule most Championship suitors out of the race and it remains to be seen if Trabzonspor are even willing to do a permanent deal.

ಞRichard Hughes seems desperate to drive a hard bargain for the defender who Jurgen Klopp once labelled ‘absolutely insane’, per .

🌜Though, at this stage, it seems he’ll have to lower the asking price as interest at that price is expected to be minimal.
