Liverpool transfer round-up: Leon Goretzka's Reds rejection

 Bayern Munich's Leon Goretzka admits he considered a move to  Liverpool  before joining the German champions.

The midfielder made the move from Schalke to Munich in 2018 which has proved an inspired choice as he became a treble winner last season.

Goretzka played a crucial role in the middle of Bayern's midfield as they won 21 straight games.

But he could so easily have been playing under a German manager at Anfield had he took advantage of Liverpool's interest.

The 25-year-old concedes he was happy to see the Reds finally win the Premier League title last season.

"Liverpool were a consideration of course," he told  the Athletic. "They’re a great club and their development since Kloppo came has been amazing.

"We’re all a little proud of him winning the title, but I was 100 per cent sure that Bayern was the right move for me.”
