John Henry wants to buy back the affection of Liverpool fans by making a club-record summer signing, Arsenal are looking to lure three players from Real Madrid, while Wednesday’s Euro Paper Talk claims Everton are poised to make an exciting raid on Barcelona.
JADON SANCHO SWOOP ON HENRY’S MIND
John Henry wants to win back the respect and appreciation of Liverpool fans by launching a huge swoop to sign Jadon Sancho.
The Reds owner is facing a backlash from supporters and pundits alike. That’s after Liverpool’s involvement – and subsequent withdrawal – from the European Super League. The American has already issued a grovelling apology to fans over the farce.
However, Henry knows the entire episode has proved a huge PR disaster for Liverpool. As such, he knows he needs to do something pretty special to win back favour from supporters and Jurgen Klopp. Indeed a report on Wednesday claimed Klopp was considering his future over the whole unsavoury saga.
To that end, Fijaches claims Henry and FSG are willing to sign Sancho from Borussia Dortmund this summer. The outlet says Henry will slap down a club-record £86.1m (€100m) offer to Dortmund to tempt them to sell the winger.
Whether that tempts Dortmund to sell, or indeed goes some way to appeasing Klopp and their fans remains to be seen. The outlet claims Dortmund still hope to achieve €120m for Sancho. However, it states the Bundesliga side accepts that’s unlikely in the current climate.
Sancho has long been tracked by Manchester United, but would not pay BVB’s asking price last summer.
His potential arrival at Anfield would give Klopp strong competition in the forward line were Sadio Mane and Mo Salah both to stay.
