Liverpool now eyeing swoop to sign 'fantastic' £26m star in January as Iraola looks to reinforce key position - report

Liverpool are keeping tabs on Juventus centre-back Pierre Kalulu ahead of a possible swoop in January, according to Football Insider. Kalulu has maintained a consistent level of combative performances at the backline in recent seasons across spells with AC Milan and Juventus.

He began his career with Saint-Priest Jugend before joining Lyon’s academy as part of the club’s ever-growing talent pool of the latest generation of exciting stars that also includes the likes of Liverpool’s Bradley Barcola, Manchester City’s Rayan Cherki, RB Leipzig’s Castello Lukeba, Sunderland’s Malick Fofana, Chelsea’s Malo Gusto, etc.

Although the 26-year-old made the bench several times, he never debuted for the first team before signing for Milan in September 2020 for a significantly lower fee than his current £26m Transfermarkt valuation.
