Liverpool They are reportedly 'in attack mode' to sign Real Sociedad star Takefusa Kubo this summer, according to the Spanish outlet. Transfers.
He It has been suggested that the Reds could take advantage Mohamed Salah if they receive a lucrative proposal in the next window. Saudi team Al-Ittihad made a huge offer to sign the Egyptian last summer, but Jurgen Klopp He was not allowed to leave so he stayed at Anfield.
It has been reported that although the Saudi club were unable to acquire his service last time, they remain interested in him and could rekindle their interest in the off-season.
So it appears that Liverpool have started exploring the market to sign a new right winger as a possible replacement for Salah should he leave this summer.
A few names have been linked with a move to Anfield in recent times, including Marcus Edwards, Rodrygo and Michael Olise, but Kubo is apparently also on their radar.
According to the report of TransfersLiverpool are “determined” to buy Kubo, so they are “in attack mode” to lure him to Anfield in the next window.
Kubo to Liverpool
It has been suggested that Kubo has a £51m buyout clause on his current contract, so Liverpool will have to pay a large amount to secure his signature.
However, the report claims that Kubo is eager to remain at Real Sociedad and does not want to move at the moment. Liverpool will therefore have to convince the striker to join the club should he formalize his interest.
Transfers He also states that Kubo arrived at Real Sociedad from real Madrid and the whites could bring the player back to the club if they wish. Thus, acquiring Kubo's signature will not be easy for the Merseyside club.
Kubo is a talented player and has great potential, so he could be a shrewd signing for Liverpool to strengthen their front line if they buy him. However, the Japanese could lack the necessary physique to make his career as a winger prosper in the first division so it would be better for the Reds to explore other options to reinforce their first line.
But it will be interesting to see if Liverpool ultimately opt to take a concrete approach to signing Kubo this summer.
