Jürgen Klopp already decided what they will do with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, will he stay at Liverpool?

Liverpool, the other major contender, not only in the final in Paris but also in this, is pessimistic. The Liverpool Echo last night quoted Liverpool sources as saying that the agency representing the French international has told them that, at the moment, the wind is blowing very much in Madrid's favor.

The Reds have received this blow in the transfer market, however, they have their plan B and it is a player who plays in the Dutch Eredivisie and was runner-up in the recent campaign.

Who is the player Liverpool wants?

He is Ibrahim Sangaré, a PSV player who is being followed by several Premier League teams, including Liverpool, who are looking for a replacement for the possible departure of Alex Oxlade Chamberlain.

According to 'Voetbal International', the 'Reds' would be willing to propose an offer for the player. The price of the operation would be around 35 million euros, but it is not the only team interested in the player.

The aforementioned media added that big clubs in England such as Leicester, Chelsea, and Newcastle are also following his trail. The option of Klopp's side would be more than interesting, although it would be more difficult to get a place in the starting eleven.

Sangaré joined PSV from Toulouse, where he has become a permanent fixture in Roger Schmidt's plans. The 24-year-old is an international with Côte d'Ivoire and his performances for the Dutch side have been brilliant.
