Jürgen Klopp is determined to sign new Casemiro as soon as possible

Liverpool in general and Jürgen Klopp in particular are not doing as well in sporting terms as expected at the start of the season. Some midfield additions have not worked out, such as Arthur Melo, who could leave the team in January, and important players like Thiago Alcántara, Fabinho or James Milner himself are not being able to provide the team with what it needs in that area of the pitch; as a result, the Reds are suffering.

That is why Klopp has set his sights on a new potential for the present and the future, who would come from Brazil and threatens to be the new Carlos Henrique Casemiro. João Gomes is the name of the German manager's possible solution to the English and European runners-up's problems in containment and playmaking.

The 21-year-old has already shown at club level at Flamengo that he has the quality to make the step up to Europe and the maturity to perform from the word go. That is why Liverpool could speed up his recruitment, as highlighted by Talk Sport. What's more, the aforementioned media outlet claims not only that Liverpool are on the young midfielder's trail, partly due to the shortcomings of their midfield, but also that the player is keen to make the leap to the Premier League giants as soon as he is given the opportunity.

"Liverpool is a team I would play for. I have the biggest desire to play. Playing in the Champions League is my biggest dream and my family's biggest dream, my biggest dream in football," he reportedly commented on his Instagram account.

At the same time, the large number of teams that have entered the fight for Jude Bellingham, Liverpool's target, would have made the discipline of the northern English city set its sights on a cheaper alternative, which would leave the Reds with the midfielder they are looking for and Real Madrid, Chelsea and Manchester United alone in the fight for the promising Borussia Dortmund midfielder, who will not leave the Bundesliga for less than 100 million euros.
