According to reports, Liverpool will have to pay a high transfer fee to sign Piero Hincapie from Bayer Leverkusen. The young defender has been linked with a move to Anfield, but the Bundesliga club is likely to demand a high price for his services. The exact figure is unknown, but it is believed to be well in excess of £50 million. This could prove to be a difficult deal for Liverpool to complete, but they are thought to be interested in signing Hincapie.Â
A number of Premier League clubs are interested in signing Piero Hincapie from Bayer Leverkusen, including Liverpool. However, the German club is not keen to sell the player and would demand a high transfer fee if they were to consider it. In addition, there is a possibility that Luke Chambers could be loaned to Leverkusen from Liverpool. However, it is unlikely that Hincapie will be signed by Liverpool as they are more focused on signing midfielders at the moment.
Considering the time constraints and Liverpool’s current squad needs, it doesn’t seem likely that Hincapie will be signed. The club is reportedly looking for a left-sided centre-back who is young and comfortable in a supporting role. It’s also worth noting that Virgil van Dijk is likely to start most of the games if he is fit, so any new signing would not be guaranteed regular playing time.
