DBasia.news – AS Roma are getting closer to bringing in Liverpool center back, Dejan Lovren. The news was reported by Mirror and other Italian media.
Dejan Lovren has had a hard time breaking into Liverpool’s main squad. With the presence of other central defenders such as Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez, and Joel Matip, the Croatian national team player ranks only fourth in Jurgen Klopp’s scheme.
This was proven last season. Lovren only appeared in 18 matches in various events. In fact, in the Premier League, Lovren only played for 985 minutes.
“I have no answer. We will see what will happen. He is still experiencing fitness problems,” Jurgen Klopp said when asked about Dejan Lovren’s future as reported by the Mirror.
Not surprisingly, the 30-year-old player wants to immediately leave from Anfield. Dejan Lovren is reported to have established relations with AS Roma.
Liverpool have reportedly accepted an offer from AS Roma worth 15 million pounds. This amount can increase up to 23 million pounds if added to the bonus.
AS Roma needs Dejan Lovren to replace Kostas Manolas who is heading for Napoli. Lovren is still in the best condition and has a wealth of experience. That way, Lovren can provide knowledge for young players.
Dejan Lovren has made Liverpool spend 25 million euros when they purchased him from Southampton in 2014. Before appearing in the Premier League, Lovren had strengthened Olympique Lyon and Dinamo Zagreb.
