In the race for potential summer signings, Liverpool has emerged as a contender to secure the services of James Ward-Prowse from Southampton, according to reports from the Guardian.
The talented midfielder, known for his impressive free kicks, found himself unable to prevent Southampton from suffering relegation, which increased the likelihood of the 28-year-old's departure from the club as they drop down to the Championship.
With an eye on bolstering their midfield options, the Reds are reportedly prepared to invest £25 million to secure Ward-Prowse's signature, viewing him as a valuable addition to Jurgen Klopp's imagined team. The Dutch manager's side have already made an early move to the transfer market, securing Brighton's Mac-Allister and the potential addition of the Englishman would further enhance their midfield strength.
While negotiations and discussions are ongoing, Ward-Prowse's potential arrival at Anfield would mark an intriguing transfer move and provide Liverpool with an additional midfield presence capable of making a significant impact in Klopp's system.
