Klopp Takes Important Step To Sign Star Player For Liverpool

Liverpool star player Philippe Coutinho is getting closer to Barcelona, and there have been different players linked with Liverpool to replace the Brazilian at Anfield.

A few hours ago, there were reports that Liverpool’s first choice is to sign Thomas Lemar from Monaco, but as a second option, they will move for Leicester City’s Riyad Mahrez.

According to popular French news outlet L’Equipe, the Merseyside club have begun to make advancements to sign the Algerian, and that Jurgen Klopp’s side have actually made first contact with Leicester City to get the African’s signature.

Riyad is a talented player and is one of the best playmakers playing in England. Two seasons ago, he helped the foxes with the premier league trophy and was also crowned the premier league player of the year.

Although things were difficult for him last season, Mahrez has been impressive at the Kings Power Stadium this season so far. In 21 top-flight games, the talented player has scored 7 goals and has provided 8 assists to his teammates.

Riyad’s has a contract with Leicester City meant to expire in 2020, and he earns around $136,000 each week.

Both Lemar and Mahrez are talented players, but who among them do you think manager Jurgen Klopp should sign for Liverpool?
