'He'll cost £50m in a year': Fans name talented defensive midfielder Liverpool should've signed — he was free

Liverpool are struggling to find a new defensive midfielder after failing to sign Caicedo or Lavia.

Some Reds fans believe the club should have signed Ellyes Skhiri. The Tunis international left Koln on contract expiry in June and ended up signing for Frankfurt.

The 28-year-old is firmly among the top 20% of defensive midfielders in Europe by the number of interceptions, blocks and clearances made, according to stats website FBRef.

p Lama p: "The market is crazy, but Ellyes Skhiri was free and nobody was interested. Someone will pay 50 mil+ in a year or two to Frankfurt now."

Char: "Skhiri is a free agent currently [in June] if LFC had interest for him, Liverpool should already signing him and announced his signing"

EDJ: "It seems like all my DM targets are moving this window so I'm not too sure who's left for Liverpool. Rice, Caicedo, Ugarte, Lavia, Vinicius Souza, Skhiri all moved/moving this window. Adams is still an option possibly and still a big fan of Sangare but yeah it's looking sparse."
