Joël Matip has agreed to sign for Liverpool in the summer.
The 24-year-old, who can play as a centre-back or defensive midfielder, will leave Schalke at the end of the season after agreeing to ink a pre-contract agreement with the Reds.
We’ve been linked with the Cameroon international for some time and as our followers will know, he is the one player from many that has been targeted by the Reds that we expected us to sign so we are delighted to have this confirmed.
Matip is one of the Bundesliga’s most highly-rated central defenders and this signing will definitely be considered as a significant coup.
Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp is on course to make further signings from Germany as he looks to strengthen his squad in the summer. We would advise you monitor our Liverpool Rumours page to keep track of developments.
