Shkodran Mustafi
Liverpool are contemplating a move for Valencia centre back Shkodran Mustafi. He is 24 years old and spent several years at Everton before being released in January 2012 and signed with Sampdoria. He played over 50 Serie A games and even scored a goal against in Atalanta 2014. After 2 and a half years in Italy Valencia offered a reported €8 million which was accepted and has since played over 60 games and scored 6 goals in La Liga. He is a full German international and was a member of the 2014 World Cup winning squad and made several appearances during the the tournament. With the suspension hanging over Mamadou Sakho's head and the unsuccessful season that Valencia have endured could mean now is the perfect time to approach the young German.

Per the Ed's, he will have a number of options come the summer.

Cant imagine if he is a target that he will be coming cheaply.

All the german internationals are a somekscreen, for we have gone all out with our war-chest for the One to Rule Them All - M. Reus.

I think that we will always be linked with German players as under Rafa Benitez we were linked with most Spanish players.

As I remember, we bought a lot of Spanish players while Rafa Benitez was the gaffer.

{Ed002's Note - No Davey - at least that is according to his club that have had discussions with another side. Price is putting some clubs off.}

Ed002
Signing Ousmane Dembele at a massively over inflated fee suggests that whoever signs him will have to guarantee 1st team football?
Paying that much irrespective of his talent is a recipe for disaster at his young age.

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of any guarantees being asked for.}

Looks likely too be off to Dortmund, with his family looking around the facilities. I say we have a slight chance still.

I know Ed's don't like talking numbers, but could you give us a ballpark number on his expected transfer fee? I know it's only youtube, but liked what I saw in the kid, he keeps his head up at all times, good sign. Also with talk of inflated price, and Dortmund possibly buying Goetze back, does that mean they expect to loose either Reus/ Aubameyang/ Mkhitaryan this summer?

{Ed002's Note - I am not going to get in to money but Dortmund could lose 2 or 3 of those players.}
