Have Juventus shocked Liverpool in the race to sign Dahoud?
Just when Liverpool thought they were closing in on Borussia Monchengladbach midfielder Mahmoud Dahoud, German sports daily Bild claims that the Premier League club will now face a battle with both Juventus and Borussia Dortmund to secure his services.
The journal states that the bianconeri have already tabled a €30 million offer for the 20-year-old to try to see off the competition from England. Reports from the UK on Sunday however, revealed that the Merseyside giants had tried to tempt the Bundesliga club with a £26 million bid. Now there is a third player in the game with rival Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund having reportedly offered €15 million plus Turkish midfielder Nuri Şahin.
The Syrian born German Under-21 international has shot to stardom since breaking into the Monchengladbach first-team and has already clocked up 54 appearances and scoring five goals. It now looks as though it’s a three-way fight to prize him away from Borussia-Park.
