Hi ed002,

Is there any update on the situation with Brandt? I've read the posts and listened to the sharkopod as well. Would just like to know whether any progress has been made since your last update. Thank you.

{Ed002's Note - Not that I am aware of Valent. What we know is that Kipperty has the Klops for Brandt and Brandt would be keen on a move but doesn';t want to be starting from the Bench each week. The solution is a discussion and that can happen when Liverpool get the Amex out. Right now we appear to be where we were.}

How would Brandt be starting from the bench each week? Klopp wants to play Coutinho in midfield role right? So Brandt would slot in the left forward role that Coutinho took up last season.

Obviously transfers take time and this is one that will probably drag out a bit, I feel like it's something to do with the demands. If I'm not mistaken a lot of players try to force first team football on their contracts so if the player is not injured he has to play. I think that might be happening with can as well, but I'm probably completely wrong. Otherwise I can't see what should hold up the deal other than how much brandt is priced at.

@Kman

Hm, wages/ bonuses? Signing on fee? Agent fee? Any of these could hold up a player signing a contract? Not just playtime promises.

Couts in CM is not set in stone yet and this is why Brandt needs the assurances that this will be the case, Ramkish.
