Liverpool boosted by pursuit of Nico Schlotterbeck

Liverpool and Real Madrid could trigger the defender’s clause this summer. However, the termination clause is not valid for the entire transfer window. According to reports, it is scheduled to expire around the time of the World Cup final on July 19th. It will be interesting to see if Liverpool decide to sign the German defender in the summer.

Schlotterbeck has excelled in the Bundesliga and has the qualities to succeed in the Premier League. Liverpool are close to agreeing a new contract with Ibrahima Konate, but no deal has been reached yet. If they are unable to convince the France international to sign a new contract, a German player would be ideal as his replacement.
