On the evening of April 26, Beijing time, the latest news from the well-known French media Footmercato showed that Liverpool had contacted the French international Joan Ameni, who played for Monaco in the Ligue 1. The 22-year-old talented back is expected to be Liverpool's first signing this summer.
Footmercato said Klopp admired Joan Ameni so much that Uncle Scum even listed the latter as one of the top priorities for this summer's reinforcements. Although the Reds have a lot of famous players in midfield. But fabinho is the only one who has a pure back attribute, and the Reds need to introduce new backs to rotate with them.
And with Henderson and Milner slipping because of their age, the Reds midfield position really needs fresh blood, and Joan Ameni is a very suitable candidate.
The 22-year-old Joan Ameni has been a fixture in Monaco this season, making 47 appearances for the team, scoring three goals and assisting two assists. Joan Ameni is already an active international for the French men's national team and is currently worth as much as €40 million on Germany's Transfer Market, while Liverpool are willing to offer €50 million to sign him. Monaco has a good working relationship with Liverpool, Brazil international Fabinho joined Liverpool from Monaco, and the Reds hope to replicate such a successful transfer.
However, Liverpool also face fierce competition, as Real Madrid and Paris are also eyeing Joan Ameni. Especially Real Madrid, there have been Spanish media reports before, Real Madrid is close to completing this signing, but in fact, this transaction is far from being reached. In football, there is not much difference between the results of Liverpool and Real Madrid, and in terms of finances, liverpool are now in charge.
