One of Liverpool’s summer signings from last year is rumored to be on the verge of leaving the club after just seven months. The player in question, Ryan Gravenberch, has struggled to secure a regular spot in the squad since joining last summer.
According to Turkish outlet Fotomac, Galatasaray is showing a keen interest in signing the out-of-favor midfielder. In fact, they had reportedly wanted to acquire his services last summer, but Liverpool managed to secure his signature with a higher offer.
Gravenberch, who joined from Bayern Munich, has only made 10 Premier League starts for Liverpool and suffered an ankle injury during the Carabao Cup final. These factors have contributed to his lack of playing time and his fall down the pecking order at Anfield.
While the 21-year-old may be hesitant about leaving so soon after joining Liverpool, the club may consider offloading him this summer, especially with the impending change of manager.
Jurgen Klopp’s departure has already signaled a shake-up at the club, and the squad is expected to undergo changes as well. Galatasaray, who currently hold a two-point lead over their arch-rivals Fenerbahce in the Turkish Super League, sees Gravenberch as a primary target for the upcoming transfer window.
Despite the disappointment of Liverpool’s recent defeats in the Premier League and Europa League, the club is preparing for a fresh start and a chance to rebuild their squad.
Gravenberch’s potential departure could be one of the first steps in this process. Only time will tell if the rumors hold true and if Gravenberch will indeed make a swift exit from Anfield.
