Bologna defender Sam Beukema could be heading to the Premier League in the near future.
The Reds are set to pursue the 25-year-old center half for a summer transfer, per The Mirror.
Manager Arne Slot has even admitted this week that he pursued Beukema back in 2021.
“I wanted to sign him. He had had a very good season at Go Ahead Eagles and we were looking for a central defender," he explained to reporters.
"We saw a lot of potential in him.”
He added: “I think he chose the wrong club, because Feyenoord did a lot better than AZ (Alkmaar)!
"But, in the end, he made a nice transfer to Bologna, where he is also doing well. Beukema is a very good player.”
