Frankfurt star Hugo Larsson has attracted interest from Liverpool

Frankfurt star Hugo Larsson has attracted interest from Liverpool

Liverpool made an impressive start to the new season after securing another important win in the Premier League on Saturday.

The Reds rallied from a goal down to beat Brighton 2-1 to go top of the league table and are currently two points clear of defending champions Manchester City, who have amassed 23 points.

Slot also led his side to the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup and is unbeaten in the UEFA Champions League.

Liverpool secured wins over AC Milan, Bologna and RB Leipzig.

They host Bayer Leverkusen on Tuesday night at Anfield and a win will strengthen their lead at the top of the table.

However, there is always room for improvement. More specifically, Slot has been on the lookout for a new midfielder ever since he arrived in the summer.

After missing out on Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad, the Reds have been linked with a move for more midfielders.

The latest midfielder to be linked with a move to Anfield is Eintracht Frankfurt’s Hugo Larsson.

The Sweden international joined the Bundesliga side at the start of the 2023/24 campaign from Swedish champions Malmö FF and soon became a first-team regular.

In his first season at the club, the 20-year-old has made 38 competitive appearances, contributing two goals and two assists.

This season, the Swede has scored three goals and provided an assist in 14 appearances.

He recently extended his contract with the Eagles, which was originally due to run until June 30, 2028, but has now been extended by a year.

Despite the expansion, plenty of clubs are showing interest in acquiring his services.

According to Sky Sport Germany, several top clubs, including Liverpool, are monitoring the Frankfurt midfielder.

Frankfurt are under no pressure to sell one of their prized assets, however, if they want to cash in on Larsson, it is reported that Frankfurt could demand between €70m and €80m next summer.
