Jörg Schmadtke receives a unique benefit as Liverpool receives a double transfer bonus for a $62 million duo.

In light of Liverpool’s search for a few midfielders located in the Bundesliga, two significant board-level adjustments may work to their advantage.

Liverpool’s pursuit of Borussia Mönchengladbach midfielder Manu Koné has received an interesting boost.

According to Christian Falk of Bild, Nils Schmadtke, the son of newly hired Liverpool director Jörg Schmadtke, is now employed by the Bundesliga club’s sports director.

He believes that this will make Koné’s potential move to Anfield during the summer transfer window ‘easier’.

Falk informed Caught Offside that Liverpool saw the 22-year-old Frenchman as a substitute for Jude Bellingham after Borussia Dortmund withdrew from the competition for the player due to cost concerns.

He continues by saying that the club has spoken to his entourage, and according to insiders close to the player, the interest is “real and big.”

Koné, a mid-table team’s starter in 30 league games this season, is anticipated to cost between $43 (£35/€40) and $54 (£43/€50) million.

Schmadtke began working as Julian Ward’s replacement on Monday, but for the time being, he has only agreed to a temporary contract.

After the advocate was expelled, Gravenberch might move.

According to Kerry Hau of SPORT1, the future of Liverpool target and Bayern Munich midfielder Ryan Gravenberch is “uncertain” with the resignation of sporting director Hasan Salihamid.

Even though Borussia Dortmund had the Bundesliga title on the final day, Bayern parted ways with Salihamidi and CEO Oliver Kahn.

Its total of 71 points was the lowest it had been since the 2010–11 campaign (65), and it also lost badly to Manchester City on aggregate 4-1 in the Champions League quarterfinals.

Gravenberch was regarded as a “Salihamidi player,” thus there is now further uncertainty as to whether he will play at the Allianz Arena in the upcoming campaign.

Manager Thomas Tuchel will need to present the Dutchman with a “clear plan” if he wants him to stay. If not, it’s “possible” that he’ll join the Premier League, with clubs like Liverpool “interested.”

Gravenberch only transferred from Ajax to Bayern last summer, but both Tuchel and his predecessor Julian Nagelsmann have given him very few opportunities.

He joined Bayern from Ajax for $19 million (£16 million/€18 million) last summer, although he only started three of the team’s 34 league games this season and was not used as a replacement eight times.

Liverpool transfer news: Jürgen Klopp prioritizes a $43 million star and Manu Koné as his “number one” player

FOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK….

Liverpool transfer news: Jürgen Klopp may also see a $43 million steal for Federico Chiesa, and the Reds are reportedly in pole position to sign Manu Koné.

With Jörg Schmadtke as the club’s new sports director, Liverpool should expect to be linked with a wide range of players as the transfer market ramps up.

There is a fair probability that Schmadtke will be linked to moves for a number of Bundesliga players, with Manu Koné receiving yet another mention in today’s transfer round-up. Schmadtke has a lot of work to do.

However, Liverpool will not simply make investments in the midfield.

Jürgen Klopp must also find ways to strengthen his defense, and in response to a question before the season’s final game, he did not rule out making a signing in an attacking position.

Midfield may be the first priority, but if the right players in other positions are available for the right price, there are still lots of other things that may happen in the summer transfer market.

Here is Liverpool.com’s assessment of the transfer rumors that have been swirling about the Reds lately, in which two talents who might suit that description have been connected to transfers to Anfield.

(Borussia Mönchengladbach) Manu Koné

Manu Koné might join Liverpool this summer, according to Tobi Altschäffl, a BILD writer in Germany, who spoke with Empire of the Kop regarding Borussia Mönchengladbach’s willingness to trade the player.

There have been speculations that Chelsea and PSG want Koné, but Altschäffl believes that Liverpool is currently the top destination for him.

“A new era is beginning in Liverpool’s midfield, and he might be a key component of it. Maybe the final sum is $32 (£26/€30) million plus a $5.4 (£4.3/€5 million) bonus. If Liverpool pushes, this might move quickly.

According to Liverpool.com, Koné certainly seems to be a possibility that the Reds are examining, but it is still unclear whether Liverpool will ultimately choose him. Finding the correct combination will depend on a number of other talented individuals, including Khéphren Thuram.

(Juventus)Federico Chiesa

According to La Gazzetta Dello Sport (print edition, via Paisley Gates), Liverpool and Bayern Munich are ‘above all’ interested in signing Juventus forward Federico Chiesa this summer.

As the Italian team attempts to raise money, the source states that Chiesa may be made available for as little as $43 million (£34 million/€40 million). However, the 25-year-old has missed a lot of sport due to injury – 62 games over the last two seasons, according to Transfermarkt.

If there is trust that his problems are behind him, Chiesa would be a great addition to Liverpool’s forward line and at that price would be a bargain that would be worth the risk, according to Liverpool.com.

However, the immediate priority is not the offensive locations. Liverpool requires at least a few midfielders and one or two defenders. However, considering Chiesa’s caliber, there is a case for adding him as well for as low as $43m.
