Liverpool urged to complete signing of 12-goal Dutch star after impressive Premier League season

The likes of Arsenal and LIVERPOOL have been urged to sign AFC Bournemouth attacking midfielder Justin Kluivert in the summer transfer window, who was impressive in the Premier League last season.

Kluivert shined for the south coast club in the Premier League last season, producing 12 goals and six assists in 34 top-flight games for the Cherries.

Bournemouth are reported to have placed a £43M price tag on the 26-year-old star, who can also be deployed as a winger and has previously played for Ajax and Roma, and Rene Meulensteen is convinced his Dutch compatriot would ‘thrive’ at Arsenal or Liverpool.

‘I’m surprised that Justin Kluivert hasn’t had a huge transfer,’ Meulensteen told Grosvenor Casino about the Netherlands international, who is the son of Patrick Kluivert and under contract at Bournemouth until June 2028.

‘I wondered if Arne Slot would have a punt on him because he is versatile, he is quick and has developed really well.

‘He has come so far and is very effective, I could see him thriving at Arsenal or Liverpool.

‘Maybe not with Manchester United, they already have Matheus Cunha and Bruno Fernandes, but I think Kluivert has done really well.’

IcFootballnews Says…

Kluivert was decent last season, he is at a club that plays him every week and at a very good level, a move to Arsenal and Liverpool would give him more money, the chance to play a few games, but also keep the bench warm.

Arsenal and LIVERPOOL have very good squads and adding Kluivert to the side would just be to add depth, it would not be a good move for the Dutchman to make.

And to be honest, if they wanted to sign the player, they would have done it by now
