Kabak has slowly grown into his role with the Reds and they could reportedly sign him for around £18m. He joined in January, along with Ben Davies, to help ease the Reds’ defensive crisis.
Since then, the Turkish star has impressed. However, the signing of Konate will leave Liverpool with more than enough central defenders. It means, in reality, they may not actually need to move to sign Kabak afterall.
TBR View: Kabak has done well but at £18m, Liverpool now don’t need him
Signing Konate should be enough for Liverpool here. The return of Gomez, Matip, and Van Dijk will also help, while Nat Phillips has shown himself a more than capable deputy when needed.
Sadly for Kabak, he’ll probably end up back in Germany and seeking a summer move himself.
He’s not done anything wrong, but with the Reds splashing £30m on Konate, there’s not much need to go out and spend another £18m on someone who won’t be a regular anyway.
