Aston Villa midfielder Jacob Ramsey has emerged as a summer transfer target for Liverpool.
According to the Telegraph, the Reds are one of three Premier League clubs who are monitoring the Aston Villa midfielder with a view to a summer move.
The Merseyside club will have a new manager leading the team next season as Arne Slot prepares to take charge of the club.
Liverpool are expected to strengthen their squad with a number of positions being looked at by club chief Michael Edwards.
Along with a wide-attacker and a defender, they are expected to enter the market to sign a midfielder.
Ramsey has emerged as the player who fits the profile that the Reds are looking for.
Ramsey’s possible departure might turn out to be a brilliant move for Aston Villa as they aim to balance their finances while also preparing themselves to play in the Champions League.
The Premier League’s top clubs are taking notice of the Ramsey because of his amazing performances and adaptability on the pitch.
The player wants to stay at his boyhood club and experience the charm of playing the Champions League with them.
But Villa could be forced to cash in on him with a view to balancing the books as Ramsey’s sale would be counted as pure profit in the club’s finances.
Liverpool would be an ideal destination for Ramsey
Ramsey would be a perfect midfielder for a team like Liverpool who likes to press and play high-paced football.
The Aston Villa midfielder is known for his pressing and versatility in the middle of the park.
Ramsey demonstrated his potential in the 2023–24 season, despite getting limited playing time due to fitness issues.
Newcastle United and Tottenham are also interested in the 22-year-old Aston Villa midfielder but among those clubs, he would surely prefer a move to Anfield.
