# Liverpool: Fresh Arnaut Danjuma rumour emerges

**[Liverpool](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/liverpool-fc-news/) have been boosted in their efforts to sign Villarreal winger Arnaut Danjuma this summer, with the Dutchman keen on leaving his current club.**

### The Lowdown: Reds linked with Danjuma move

The Reds have been [linked](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/liverpool-fc-news/liverpool-arnaut-danjuma-makes-reds-transfer-claim-salah-mane-klopp-lfc/) with a move for the 25-year-old in recent days, as Jurgen Klopp looks for a replacement for Sadio Mane.

Danjuma enjoyed a good season for Villarreal, scoring [six](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/323625/Show/Arnaut-Danjuma) times to help reach the Champions League semi-finals, not to mention chipping in with [ten goals and three assists](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/323625/Show/Arnaut-Danjuma) in [La Liga](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/la-liga-news/).

It looks as though the winger could be moving on in the coming months, though, which could alert Liverpool.

### The Latest: Fresh rumour emerges

According to [*El Periodico Mediterraneo*](https://www.elperiodicomediterraneo.com/) \[via [*Sport Witness*](https://sportwitness.co.uk/player-closely-followed-by-liverpool-wants-to-leave-asks-club-to-accept-offers-this-summer/)\], Danjuma ‘wants to leave’ Villarreal this summer and has asked his agent to ‘find a way out’ – it even goes so far as to say he ‘will do everything possible to leave’.

He is keen on moving to the Premier League, which further aids Liverpool in their quest to sign him, and a €40m release clause means an offer of just £34m from Julian Ward would get it done.

### The Verdict: Good squad option

Danjuma may not be considered a world-class footballer at the moment, but he is someone who could be a great squad option for Klopp, especially if Mane leaves.

He has been [hailed](https://thisisfutbol.com/2021/04/blogs/championship/bournemouth/bournemouth-jonathan-woodgate-praises-arnaut-danjuma/) as an ‘exceptional’ player by Jonathan Woodgate in the past, while[two goals in six caps](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/arnaut-danjuma/profil/spieler/355861) for the Netherlands represents a promising start to his international career.

Danjuma would have to accept that he would be coming in as a squad player at Liverpool initially, rather than a guaranteed starter, but his pace, trickery and end product would make him a strong addition and potential superstar for the future.
