Liverpool boss Klopp bringing £21m striker back to the PL would be superb business – opinion – originally posted on Sportslens.com
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp will undoubtedly be on the lookout for attacking reinforcements this summer.
The Reds manager has Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane, Diogo Jota and Divock Origi to choose from.
The first three players mentioned are now all 29, however. Meanwhile, Origi has been heavily linked with an exit from Anfield (Fabrizio Romano).
Donyell Malen the ideal addition for Jurgen Klopp
The 22-year-old Holland international has been exceptional for PSV since joining the Eredivisie outfit from Arsenal way back in 2017.
Malen has racked up 55 goals and 24 assists in 116 games for PSV thus far.
The powerful Dutchman is dynamic, possesses superb movement and is absolutely rapid. All of those attributes instantly make him ideally suited to Klopp’s high-tempo setup at Liverpool.
He is a very good finisher as well.
With 19 goals and eight assists to his name for PSV last season, he had the fourth-highest goal involvements in the Eredivisie.
Sport Bild claims that Malen could be signed for just €25 million (£21 million) this summer. That would be truly outstanding value considering his undeniable talent and potential.
The former Arsenal attacker would provide great competition and cover for Salah, Firmino, Jota and Mane.
He can operate as an out-and-out centre-forward or on either wing. That kind of versatility will undoubtedly appeal to Klopp.
