Agents of Liverpool target left 'discontent' after failed Anfield switch

"Or rather, to try to fulfill his Premier League 'dream' : from Jorge Mendes to Ali Barat 's Epic , with the latter trying to place him in England as early as last January.

"Specifically, at Liverpool , but ultimately unsuccessfully, and that's perhaps where Boris's discontent arose.

"It must be said that the Italian De Fanti , equally strong in England, has also been gravitating around the Nerazzurri number 2 for some time, and it's no longer a mystery. But let's repeat: the real agent is none other than Boris, the father."

Denzel Dumfries would be an interesting signing for Liverpool

Dumfries is basically the polar opposite of Liverpool's other transfer targets.

The right-back is a fairly one dimensional player and even though he has been used at centre-back, he's much better when used as a right-back.

He's also 30 years old which, now that Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson are both leaving, would make him one of the oldest players in the squad.

Indeed, a sprinkle of experience is needed among every team and, since Dumfries has a release clause worth around £20 million, it's a signing that makes a lot of sense.
