Liverpool are only side capable of signing Leicester star, says agent

Caglar Soyuncu TEAMtalk

Caglar Soyuncu’s representative Mustafa Dogru says that Liverpool are the only side capable of signing the Leicester City defender this summer.

The 23-year-old has successfully filled the void left by Harry Maguire in the heart of the Foxes’ defence this term, playing 38 times this season for Brendan Rodgers’ side.

That has led to a higher profile for the Turkey centre-back and Dogru has even touted the Leicester City man for a summer switch to Barcelona.

Apparently the LaLiga side have shown interest before when Soyuncu was in Turkey with boyhood club Altinordu.

However, with Liverpool in the market for a new defender to replace Dejan Lovren it’s interesting that Dogru has decided it was the right time to name-check the Reds.

“It is possible Caglar can go to play for Barcelona this summer,” Dogru told Spanish outlet AS. “Barca already wanted to sign him when he played for Altinordu.

 

 

 

“We have negotiated with them and they have presented a project. But we think that he should go to a team where he is a permanent starter, for it to develop properly.

“I think only Liverpool have the power to sign Caglar in the Premier League because of his economic conditions, but we must not forget French teams. PSG could be a surprise.”

AS claim Real Madrid and Atlético are believed to be watching the defender, who was a £19m signing from Freiburg in August 2018.
