According to media reports, Liverpool is interested in signing Jules Kounde, a French international and Sevilla player.
According to El Nacional, the Merseyside club are willing to activate a release clause worth 90 million euros (£75 million) in order to sign the Les Bleus center half during the winter transfer window.
Furthermore, the Catalan outlet claims that the 23-year-old star has accepted Liverpool's offer to move to Anfield, citing sources.
and Real Madrid and Chelsea have been tracking Kounde for some time, and according to a Spanish news source, Jurgen Klopp is concerned that the European giants will be back next summer to sign the youngster. As a result, the German manager wants the Reds to move quickly to sign him this month.
The former Bordeaux defender has been outstanding for the Andalusian club under Julen Lopetegui's management. He was an integral part of the team that won the Europa League in 2020.
So far in the current season, Kounde has appeared in 17 league games for the La Liga side, helping the team keep 9 clean sheets. Sevilla have the best defensive record in Spain so far In 20 games, they have only allowed 13 goals. They trail leaders Real Madrid by five points but have a game in hand.
In October 2021, the 7-cap international played the full 90 minutes in both the semi-final and final of the UEFA Nations League, assisting Didier Deschamps' men to victory.
Liverpool suffered greatly last season because all of their senior central defenders were injured. They're back this season, and the Reds signed Ibrahima Konate in the summer to bolster the defense.
In all fairness, the Anfield club does not need to strengthen their defense this month. Instead, they should concentrate on bolstering the midfield and attack.
