Liverpool received a boost in their pursuit of Donyell Malen as reports from Germany suggest the attacker plans to leave Borussia Dortmund.
According to Sky Sports Germany, Donyell Malen could have already decided to leave Borussia Dortmund ahead of January. The 24-year-old Dutch attacker remains unhappy at the club and under manager Edin Terzic, with the news set to boost Liverpool’s hope of signing him.
Donyell Malen could emerge as a big target for clubs ahead of the January window after reports from Germany insist he’s ready to quit Borussia Dortmund. The 24-year-old Dutch attacker has attracted much interest from top clubs, most notably Liverpool.
The Dutchman seems unhappy with his role at Dortmund and under manager Edin Terzic. The report emphasises his love for playing the central part or on the left wing. Instead, he’s seen more game time on the right side of the attack.
Terzic already has plenty of options to run the rule over on the left-hand side or centrally, with Niclas Fullkrug currently their central striker. Since joining from PSV Eindhoven in the summer of 2021, the 24-year-old Dutch attacker has barely reached the goalscoring levels he showcased in the Eredivisie.
Last season was his best so far, with ten goals across all competition; this term, he has five. As per Sky reporter Patrick Berger, Malen is ready to leave Dortmund as he said, “He is planning his departure. We can confirm that.”
The news does boost the hopes of a few suitors, including Arsenal, who have shown an interest. Malen represents a solid attacking talent, with Dortmund ready to accept bids worth €30 million, which they paid PSV two years ago.
Real Madrid are also keen, but it’s Liverpool who are counted as one of the top suitors for the 24-year-old Dutch attacker. With Mohamed Salah occupying the right wing at Anfield, Jurgen Klopp might consider adding another attacker who could play on the right or centrally.
Darwin Nunez has underperformed this season, while Luis Diaz might need competition occasionally. Hence, the idea of Malen suits Liverpool, who also held an interest during the summer window. Back then, Dortmund demanded €60 million from the Merseysiders, as Klopp had other priorities.
As Liverpool enters the January window, they still have other areas to consider, notably central defence and bringing in one fullback. There are doubts about whether they prioritise an attacker in the next window, but at that €30 million price point, Klopp might think about it.
