Liverpool are consistently linked with top quality midfielders and one of them is Azzurri star, Marco Verratti.
Three days ago, a report via Marca starting that the Reds are willing to beat Atletico Madrid to sign the Italian from Paris Saint-Germain, who value their prized asset at 70 million euros (£60million).
More recently, reports coming from Spain suggest that Verratti has accepted a move to Liverpool.
According to Catalan outlet, Nacional, the decorated midfielder has given the ‘OK’ to join Jurgen Klopp’s side, who now need to reach an agreement with PSG to complete the transfer.
The 30-year-old star was keen on the idea of reuniting with Carlo Ancelotti at Real Madrid. However, president, Florentino Perez, did not consider signing him keeping in view the La Liga giants already have ample quality and depth in the center of the park.
It must be remembered that the Los Blancos broke the bank to sign Jude Bellingham, who was high on the wish-list of Liverpool not so long ago.
According to a Spanish news outlet, Diego Simeone, the manager of Atletico Madrid, was interested in signing Verratti, but he turned down the Rojiblancos in favor of a transfer to Anfield.
The veteran player has played in more than 400 games in France and has nine Ligue 1 and Super Cup championships to his credit. He has also won the League Cup and the French Cup six times each.
The 55-cap hero has thus won thirty domestic championships but zero European trophies with PSG. Maybe now is the right time for him to go.
Not to mention, Verratti was a crucial part of the Italian team that Roberto Mancini coached to victory at the European Championships two years ago. During the contest, he gave two assists.
Overwhelmed with Mohamed Salah ‘modest’ car collection makes all Liverpool stars dream of
Not only famous for his ability to “hunt goals” on the pitch, the Egyptian striker is also known for his super car hobby. A quiet and quiet player, but Mohamed Salah loves the roar of the engine and the speed. The Liverpool striker is a genuine car player when he owns a fleet of expensive cars, from supercars to super luxury cars.
Notable in Mohamed Salah’s collection is the Bentley Continental GT. This model is often driven by the 29-year-old striker to the training ground. In the UK, this model costs around £160,000
With a top speed of up to 210 mph, the Continental GT is also a car favored by many players in the English Premier League.
Salah’s Bentley Continental GT is a 6.0L W12 engine. This engine has a capacity of 626 horsepower and maximum torque of 900 Nm. The car uses an 8-speed automatic transmission with AWD four-wheel drive system, the ability to accelerate from 0-100 km / h in 3.7 seconds and a maximum speed of 333 km / h.
In addition, the Egyptian striker also owns a Lamborghini Aventador. However, this supercar rarely appears with Salah. With the ability to accelerate from 0-100 km / h in 3 seconds and a maximum speed of 350 km / h, the Italian supercar is the fastest in Salah’s collection.
Salah and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang turned out to have one thing in common: both are fans of the Lamborghini Aventador. Of course, the price of the Aventador is not cheap, its price is up to 271,000 pounds.
The Mercedes AMG Gle Couple is also very popular with Salah. This car has a 3l twin-turbo V6 engine with prices starting from over £65,000.
Like other players, Salah often chooses SUVs to drive to the training ground, thanks to the flexible operation and comfortable interior. Typical is the Mercedes-AMG GLE Coupe.
This SUV is equipped with a 3.0L twin-turbo V6 engine, producing 367 horsepower and 520 Nm of torque. This is also the favorite car of many players like Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo.
The second Mercedes in Salah’s lineup is the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster, worth around £176,000 ($242,210). This convertible supercar is equipped with a 6.3L V8 engine, with a capacity of 571 horsepower and 650 Nm of torque. Acceleration from 0-100 km / h of this model in just 3.8 seconds before reaching a maximum speed of 317 km / h.
The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster is considered one of the most expensive Mercedes cars. However, Mohamed Salah is still willing to spend money to “buy” this car back to his garage.
The reliability and reasonable price (about £54,000) of the Audi Q7 have also helped this car catch Salah’s “eyes”. This is also the “gift” Salah gave himself when he left AS Roma and arrived at Liverpool.
One of Salah’s first cars was a budget sedan – the Toyota Camry. The price of this car is also quite “affordable” when it comes to about £ 29,000.
With a salary of £400,000 a week at Liverpool, it is not difficult for Mohamed Salah to buy expensive cars.
