Before selling, FSG will give 100m signing to Klopp to beat Real VARdrid, not Bellingham

Liverpool are beginning to realise that they will not be able to meet Borussia Dortmund's asking price for Jude Bellingham and this has led them to look for a guaranteed alternative to improve their midfield. One of the players that Jurgen Klopp has always liked is Declan Rice, current West Ham United player, has become the first option to reinforce the Anfield team.

According to Football Insider, the England international is a player profile that the Reds have needed for several seasons and they will do everything possible to get him out of West Ham in the next transfer markets, in fact, the first contacts between clubs are taking place to make clear the intentions of signing him in the not too distant future. Declan Rice is valued at around 80 million euros, but the London club have already stated that they will not listen to offers for less than 100-120 million euros, a figure that is out of the hands of the Anfield team, but that they could end up collecting if any player leaves.

Liverpool are aware that Declan Rice is one of the most followed players in the Premier League for his great work at West Ham United in recent years and know that they will have competition for his signature, without going any further, one of the clubs that would seek to sign the young English midfielder would be Chelsea, a club that will need to strengthen their midfield after the departures of N'Golo Kanté and Jorginho.

Declan Rice has long been one of the best defensive midfielders in the Premier League, with the 23-year-old having an excellent individual performance wearing the West Ham shirt, something that has not gone unnoticed by most of the big English teams, with Liverpool and Chelsea apparently interested in signing a player with whom the Hammers want to break transfer records in the Premier League.

Rice is worth 100 million

According to the English press, West Ham expect to receive a transfer fee of well over 100 million euros next summer for the British player, which is not unreasonable given that since last season Declan Rice has confirmed himself as a top player in the Premier League, hence the interest of these two big teams, which with such an offer would convince the team coached by the Scottish manager David Moyes to part with one of their best players.
