Liverpool reportedly have a deal in place for Lamine Camara
Monaco midfielder valued at €55m by Transfermarkt; Chelsea had agreed terms earlier, but that move collapsed when Monaco pulled out.
According to FourFourTwo, Liverpool have reportedly secured a deal for their first signing of the January window: Lamine Camara, the Monaco midfielder. Chelsea had agreed a deal for the player towards the end of the summer window, but it was called off when Monaco backed out.
Daily Mail journalist Lewis Steele says the name refuses to go away, and that Chelsea sources believe Liverpool may already have a deal in place with the player. Sporting director Julian Ward could bring the transfer forward.
Liverpool started the season with Dominik Szoboszlai and Ryan Gravenberch in a double pivot, but lacked defensive awareness until the 19-year-old Trey Nyoni was moved into the centre. Camara is valued at €55 million by Transfermarkt. Liverpool face Manchester United when the Premier League resumes after the international break.
