25-year-old “expected to leave Anfield” and Liverpool have set asking price 💰 as Klopp discovers secret weapon

Joe Gomez is Klopp's secret weapon as £10M player set to leave

Liverpool are “anticipating” bids for Nathaniel Philips as the transfer deadline approaches while Joe Gomez gears up for an important season.

Liverpool are “anticipating” bids for Nathaniel Philips as the transfer deadline approaches.

The Reds reportedly want in excess of £10M to release the 25-year-old this summer, according to GOAL.

Bournemouth, Fulham and and “a couple of” Serie A clubs want the defender to join them with regular game time at Liverpool unlikely.

Jurgen Klopp can call on the likes of Virgil van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate, Joel Matip and Joe Gomez.

The German arguably has the strongest squad depth at centre-back in Europe with each player an incredible option.

Joe Gomez and Jurgen Klopp

Joe Gomez still has the potential to be one of the best defenders in the world and is England’s best CB.

Neil Jones reports that Liverpool “expect” Phillips to leave before the Premier League transfer window shuts at 11PM on the 1st of September.

It will be unfortunate to see Phillips leave but I’m really excited to see what Joe Gomez can offer next season.

Joe Gomez signs contract and offers Liverpool real longevity

Despite spending a total of 2.2 years of his 7-year Liverpool career on the sidelines, Gomez has an incredible reputation on the pitch.

When you consider how the constant career-threatening injuries he has suffered have set him back on four occasions, it’s incredible that he is at the very peak of European football.

Liverpool may have missed out on the Champions League and the Premier League at the very death of the season, the Reds are arguably the best side in the world.

If Jurgen Klopp can get his players back to the level they were playing at in the final 15 games of the season, they have a great chance of achieving something very special.

Gomez will be a major part of it if he can stay fit as he did last season. With his body recovered and playing at least semi-regularly, the Englishman can play a key role in the squad.

He has Joel Matip and Ibrahima Konate to compete with but the peak career performance level he reached in the 2020 Premier League-winning season is arguably higher than what we’ve seen so far from his teammates.

The competition to be Virgil van Dijk’s partner – whose standards seem never to dip after he pocketed Erling Haaland in the Community Shield win over Manchester City – is only going to have a positive impact on the squad.

World-class competition only improves players and takes the team to another level as a result.
