The Reds see the Englishman as someone who could come in and help bolster the midfield, with the 24-year-old having Premier League experience. Liverpool are expected to make further midfield additions this summer, having seen two bids for Romeo Lavia rejected already, while a move for Andre of Fluminense is being investigated. Sources close to the situation suggest that Liverpool's scouting team has been closely monitoring Dewsbury-Hall's progress over the past season, and the club's interest in him has grown substantially. It remains to be seen whether Leicester City would be open to negotiating a potential transfer for Dewsbury-Hall. The player's contract situation is that he is signed with the Foxes until 2027. The player is with the agency Wasserman, who Liverpool have a good relationship with. We are told he is not a direct alternative to Lavia, but could leapfrog him on the list if negotiations with Southampton continue to prove tricky, with the Saints holding firm on their £50m valuation. It comes after Jurgen Klopp spoke out about his side’s performance following the Reds 4-3 pre-season defeat to Bayern Munich in Singapore. He said: “Now we have to analyse. We need to look at what’s physical. We did a lot in training, especially yesterday in tough circumstances. You saw with the goals we conceded it was mainly down to a lack of concentration. "They were very similar situations. That’s not allowed so we need to analyse properly and I’ll have enough time to do that on the flight home. “I hate losing. When it happens, I feel it, but it’s pre-season and a strong opponent. “We’ve had two camps in a row and this is the last day. The most important information of all is that nobody got hurt. Really cool.” Liverpool kick off their Premier League campaign away to Chelsea on 13 August, and currently do not have a fit, recognised defensive midfielder, following the £40m exit of Fabinho to Al Ittihad earlier in the week. https://the72.co.uk/2023/08/04/liverpool-considering-surprise-move-for-24-year-old-leicester-city-ace/ Liverpool are looking at Leicester City’s Kieran Dewsbury-Hall as a potential transfer target, Jacque Talbot has reported for Anfield Watch. Leicester City academy graduate Dewsbury-Hall has become a first-team regular at the King Power Stadium in recent seasons. He had to head out on loan to prove himself, finding success with both Luton Town and Blackpool before coming into the Foxes’ starting XI. Since then, the 24-year-old has played 80 times for the club, managing five goals and five assists in the process. Now though, it has been said he’s the subject of surprise interest from Liverpool. Trusted reporter Talbot has reported for Anfield Watch that Dewsbury-Hall has been watched closely by Liverpool scouts and are looking at a possible move for the midfielder. Leicester City’s stance on a potential transfer is not mentioned, but the fact that he is under contract until 2027 should put them in a strong negotiating position. A key asset? Ahead of the Championship season, Dewsbury-Hall is someone who could really thrive in this division. He really impressed during his time on loan with Luton Town and after maturing further and developing his game in the Premier League, he could be a key component in Enzo Maresca’s side. Leicester City have some solid players in midfield but as far as true no.8s go, Dewsbury-Hall is probably the standout. That could make the Foxes reluctant to letting him go, though time will tell if Liverpool’s interest is to advance. The Anfield outfit certainly have the finances to get a deal done though it remains to be seen what Leicester’s asking price would be. The pulling power is strong too but with Southampton’s Romeo Lavia firmly in the sights, it could be that they don’t need Dewsbury-Hall on top of him and their existing midfielders.

ARM1968 Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 Look but they better not touch unless they get their big boy wallet out.
hackneyfox Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 Must have been impressed with his ability to pass with both feet. Behind the receiving player.
ALC Fox Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 Long contract, home grown. Big boy bucks or get out. He's going to be a huge asset for us this season. We can't lose him unless he can be properly replaced. 3
Spudulike Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 One of our own until Liverpool tap him up. Probably his childhood club right from when his auntie bought him a red pencil case.
Micky Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 There is no way Liverpool want Dewsbury-Hall. He's not good enough for them. 1
Lesta Legend Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 "Anfield Watch understands." Mentions Lavia several times and that Southampton are playing hardball over fee This seem's made it up to me.
StanSP Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 Nah, this ain't happening. Not good enough for that side.
honeybradger Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 I think if we get an offer of 30m we have to take it. The club are obsessed with possession based, technical football and Dewsbury hall doesnt fit into that style for the long term. I do like him as a player though and wish we would try and play a style that suits him and most of our other players.
Finnegan Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 He's worth more to us than they'd be willing to pay and they could probably sign better tbh. Can't see any truth in it.
Dan Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 He's become underrated on here but then he's also not really Liverpool standard either. 1
-sodapop Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 No way they'd pay what he's worth to us. Can see them coming in again if we don't go back up first try.
Grebfromgrebland Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 Klopp does like him though he's even said so. It would be crap to lose him as he is probably our best midfielder and will shine at this level. He's played lower leagues too and I think his experience will be really valuable to us.
DezFox Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 Probably completely fabricated, could be to push Southampton for Lavia.
FoxesWalk Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 (edited) He’s not even a the right type of midfielder for the hole in their squad. They need someone to sit at the base of their new midfield, doesn’t make sense to me. They will get Lavia, presumably the likes of Caicedo is too expensive. Edited 4 August 2023 by FoxesWalk 1
bmt Posted 4 August 2023 Posted 4 August 2023 Another local player who gets no respect. But agree don't think this is real. 2
