Liverpool close to deal to buy Japanese player
Liverpool have missed out on both Romeo Lavia and Moises Caicedo as they look to strengthen their midfield options and have now turned their attention to signing Stuttgart captain and Japan international Wataru Endo.
Sources in Germany have revealed that a deal worth around €19m (£16.2m) is close to being completed. Negotiations are underway and the Japanese star has been given permission to travel to Merseyside to complete the transfer.
Endo is a 30-year-old Japanese international who can play as a defensive midfielder or centre-back. Endo would be a surprise signing for Liverpool, with the Stuttgart captain only playing in the Bundesliga since 2020 after joining from Belgian side Sint-Truiden. He previously spent the early stages of his career in his native Japan.
