Danny Murphy thinks Liverpool should sign Leicester star

Former Liverpool star Danny Murphy thinks the Reds should sign Youri Tielemans from Leicester this summer.

Murphy doesn’t expect Jurgen Klopp to make big changes this summer but believes the German may let James Milner go in order to make room for young blood at Anfield.

And the pundit has identified Tielemans, who scored 3 goals and notched 5 assists in 13 games for Leicester, as the ideal replacement for the vice-captain.

“The big clubs are always looking at what is next and where to improve,” Murphy said.

“Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will be back which is a big plus, he will practically be like a new signing. Maybe they will let Milner go and one other. Then coming in, Tielemans has had a good season at Leicester, he can open a team up and I am sure Liverpool would love a player like that.”

“You have to be careful, obviously supporters always want new signings in, but you can’t bring in too many and upset the dynamic. It is the manager’s biggest problem as he doesn’t want to upset too many players. Signings would be good, but they don’t need too much to be honest. If they were to win the Champions League, it makes them a lot more attractive.”

He added: “Jordan Henderson has had a strong end to the season, but over the course of the season Wijnaldum has been the most consistent midfielder.

“It’s an area where there is a lot of competition and Klopp has mixed it up a lot but he (Wijnaldum) has the great ability where he can create chances and get forward but he is also very disciplined and very comfortable with the ball at his feet.

“Of course, he got the plaudits after the Barcelona game, but I was talking about him even before that and he will be a certainty to play in the final.”
