And a fresh report in Empire of the Kop has provided an update on the Reds' apparent pursuit of Amrabat’s signature. It has been claimed that there will be further talks over a potential deal once the World Cup has concluded.
The article has quotes from Foot Mercato journalist Anas Bakhkhar, who explains the situation regarding Liverpool’s potential interest in Amrabat. It has been claimed that Jurgen Klopp has already met with the player’s agent, with further talks expected once the World Cup is finished.
“Liverpool’s coach Jurgen Klopp has met the agent of Sofyan Amrabat, we can also mention that his brother, Nordin Amrabat, who has been working on his brother’s career for a long time now, was also there and they both met with the coach,” Bakhkhar told Empire of the Kop.
“It was a very good meeting, it was positive and they will be meeting a few days after the end of the World Cup to see if the interest is the same for Jurgen Klopp.
“After his performances in Qatar, the interest shouldn’t change and there will be other meetings to see the demands of Fiorentina, also the demands of his agent – to see if that transfer will go ahead or not”.
