Anfield's future: Liverpool targets send ultimate come-and-get-me plea
Two Liverpool targets sent the ultimate come-and-get-me plea on Wednesday evening. This could seal their deal.
Liverpool have been linked with two Bournemouth stars in recent weeks and perhaps that shouldn't be a shock. Their sporting director, Richard Hughes, did work there after all.
Milos Kerkez signed from the Cherries last summer and it appears Liverpool may try to pry two more players from the club. One, Maros Senesi, will certainly be available with the end of his contract. The i Paper suggests the Reds are interested.
But Junior Kroupi is another who could make the move. He's been electric since breaking in at Bournemouth this season, scoring 11 times. He won't even turn 20 until the summer.
It's easy to see why Liverpool would want the pair of them, too. Senesi has five assists from centre-back - the most in the Premier League from a player in his position.
They haven't been flukes, either. His 'expected assists' sit at 4.47 and he's created more big chances (7) than any centre-back.
It's even easier to explain the hype around Kroupi - any 19-year-old in double digits for Premier League goals will be a wanted man. Liverpool won't be alone in hoping to snap him up.
