August 9th, according to British media teamtalk, Liverpool is targeting Spanish international Zubimendi, who plays for Real Sociedad, hoping he will become the first signing of the Klopp era.
Since Klopp took over at Liverpool, the team has not made any signings, making the Reds the only Premier League team without any new arrivals. To this day, Liverpool’s first signing in the off-season is targeting Real Sociedad star Zubimendi. In the 2023-24 season, Zubimendi played 45 games for Real Sociedad, contributing 4 goals and 1 assist, a commendable performance. This summer, Zubimendi played for Spain in the European Championship, contributing to the team’s trophy win.
For Klopp, with Liverpool competing in multiple competitions, including the Premier League and Champions League, in the new season, they need to strengthen their squad by bringing in new players. Targeting Zubimendi, they hope he can support Endo Wataru in that position.
However, the biggest obstacle to Zubimendi’s transfer is his transfer fee. It is reported that Real Sociedad insists on Zubimendi’s €60 million release clause and are unwilling to let him go for a lower price.
