This Guardiola's player is targeted by Klopp to replace Fabinho

Manchester City and their coach Pep Guardiola could receive bad news in the next few hours as the Catalan coach could lose another player from the team who won the historic Treble for the Citizens, as Liverpool could sign one of the best players in the Premier League, currently in the Sky Blues’ squad.

In this sense, Jürgen Klopp has already identified the player as a top target to replace Fabinho, who could leave the club in the next few hours to play for Al Ittihad, the current champions of the Saudi league, where he could join the last Ballon D’Or winner Karim Benzema. Liverpool has been reported to be receiving more than €45 million for Fabinho, which would give the Reds’ the possibility of having fresh cash to sign an important player as a Fabinho replacement.

Liverpool are targeting the Manchester City player Kalvin Phillips, an English young international who hasn’t had many minutes under Pep Guardiola’s management at the Citizens despite Phillips had already established himself as one of the best midfielders in the Premier League in 2022 at Leeds. However, now Liverpool would be ready to sign the player for €40 million.

West Ham could join Liverpool in the race to sign the player

At the moment, Liverpool hasn’t made any move for the player, as the Reds’ could be waiting to solve the potential exit of Fabinho to start talks with Manchester City and Kalvin Phillips, although they could face big competence in signing the player, with West Ham looking for a replacement of Declan Rice after his departure to Arsenal.
