#2 Edson Alvarez
Edson Alvarez, 25, can fit the bill for Liverpool considering his current valuation and his profile as a defensive midfielder. The Mexican international has recently been subject to numerous transfer rumors as he was linked with moves to West Ham United and Borussia Dortmund.
Alvarez boasts a physical tenacity to usurp in midfield duels and shield the backline while his ball distribution is also eye-catching. As per FBRef, he is among the top one percent of midfielders in terms of passes attempted, clearances, and aerial duels won.
Liverpool's successful midfield under Klopp was an industrious one with each one covering most of the area, keeping the ball well while doing their defensive duties. Klopp needs to rebuild their midfield department and Edson Alvarez would be a good catalyst in the said process.
It seems that Edson Alvarez ticks a lot of boxes and Liverpool needs that kind of a package in the midfield, but whether they pounce an opportunity to sign him remains to be seen.
