Klopp sparks transfer rumours by praising Juve, Napoli summer target
A host of top European clubs are being linked with welcoming the player’s services, including Juventus and Napoli. The partenopei are said to be closely monitoring the 19-year-old starlet who is replacing Napoli’s new striker Arkadiusz Milik who swapped the Amsterdam ArenA hierarchy with the Serie A giants last summer.
Liverpool, however, have also joined the race to sign the prolific striker with Jurgen Klopp who has praised the 19-year-old and saying that he’s worked very well with Dutch footballers.
“Of course I know him”, the Liverpool boss told Ekstra Bladet.
“He’s a special footballer who plays for a big club like Ajax, he can’t be ignored. He’s an amazing player and I’ve always been on very good terms with every Dutch footballer I’ve been working with in the past.”
