WHAT HAPPENED? After missing out on the signings of both Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia this summer, Liverpool have struck a swift agreement to sign the 30-year-old Japan international, according to Fabrizio Romano.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Jurgen Klopp’s side have lost experienced midfield duo Jordan Henderson and Fabinho already in this window. Endo would therefore provide a further option for the Reds in the middle of the park, after missing out on key targets in the past seven days.
AND WHAT’S MORE: Endo joined the German club in the summer of 2020 from Belgian Pro League side Sint-Truiden and made a total of 40 appearances in 2022-23, scoring six goals and laying on a further five assists. He also boasts a total of 50 caps for Japan.
