Liverpool target Bertrand

Southampton left-back Ryan Bertrand is the current player to be linked with a summertime transfer to Liverpool, as end-of-season agitation proceeds at St Mary’s.

Bertrand has been among the Saints’ most regular entertainers considering that his transfer to the south shore from Chelsea in 2014, as well as has developed himself for England.

After 7 spells on finance with the likes of Oldham Athletic, Norwich City, Analysis as well as Aston Suite, Bertrand ultimately plannings to have actually cleared up.

However this could all transform this summertime, inning accordance with the Telegraph, with concerns over the future of manager Claude Puel.

Centre-back Virgil van Dijk is the headline number there, with Liverpool amongst the clubs seeking a ₤ 50 million deal for the Dutchman.

However it is declared that Bertrand could also be on the move, and the Reds are credited with an interest in authorizing the 27-year-old– 3 years after turning him down.

Bertrand was a target for Brendan Rodgers back in 2014, in addition to Ben Davies, and Liverpool even lodged a ₤ 6 million bid for the Southwark citizen.
