# Liverpool hold internal conversations over Luka Sucic

**[Liverpool](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/liverpool-fc-news/) are plotting a move to bring Red Bull Salzburg midfielder Luka Sucic to the [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/), according to reports.**

### The Lowdown: Reinforcements needed

The Merseyside outfit have Naby Keita, James Milner, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Arthur Melo all [out of contract](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fc-liverpool/vertragsende/verein/31) at the end of the season, so reinforcements will definitely be needed in the summer.

[Jurgen Klopp](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tag/jurgen-klopp/) has already been [linked](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/liverpool-fc-news/liverpool-premier-league-jude-bellingham-mason-mount-transfer-news-updates/) with a couple of primary targets, including Jude Bellingham and Mason Mount, but a new candidate has now emerged in the form of the 20-year-old Salzburg sensation.

### The Latest: Liverpool eyeing Sucic

According to [Football Transfers](https://www.footballtransfers.com/en/transfer-news/uk-premier-league/2023/02/liverpool-transfer-news-luka-sucic-red-bull-salzburg), Liverpool have put Sucic on a ‘preliminary list’ of central players that they want to target.

FSG are said to have already held internal ‘conversations’ regarding a move for the Croatian, who has a ‘low release clause’, believed to be somewhere between €15-20m (£13-17m).

The Reds are ‘intent’ on signing a younger star that they can develop in midfield and they do have ‘enough funds’ to bring someone else in alongside the likes of Bellingham.

### The Verdict: One for the future

Sucic has been [dubbed](https://twitter.com/ftalentscout/status/1282295810550566912?s=46&t=q6cE-lAx3GVfAylWWs-rzQ) a ‘joy to watch’ by talent scout [Jacek Kulig](https://twitter.com/FTalentScout) and he would be a hugely exciting signing for the future of Liverpool.

The [left-footed](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/luka-sucic/profil/spieler/502722) gem has already made [23](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/luka-sucic/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/502722) goal contributions for Salzburg despite his young age and also ranks in the [99th](https://fbref.com/en/players/1e1378e1/Luka-Sucic) percentile for blocks and [88th](https://fbref.com/en/players/1e1378e1/Luka-Sucic) for interceptions per 90 minutes by midfielders outside Europe’s top five leagues, highlighting the impact he makes at both ends of the pitch.

The Linz native also has the [versatility](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/luka-sucic/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/502722) to operate in central, attacking, left and right midfield, which will be an extremely attractive attribute to Klopp.

With [four](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/luka-sucic/nationalmannschaft/spieler/502722) senior international caps to his name, Sucic has bags of potential to offer and he would flourish under the lights should he put pen to paper at Anfield.
