MASSIMISM: “I think it’s time to move on, I’ve accomplished a lot with PSV, and I want to play in the Premier League with Liverpool,” stated Fabrizio Romano. A “world-class” player has agreed to join Liverpool on a “jaw-dropping” £220,000-per-week contract, according to Sky Sports. The signing of the player is interpreted as an indication of the club’s resolve to compete at the “highest level” and he is “believed” to be a coveted acquisition.

Johan Bakayoko has yet to pledge his future to PSV Eindhoven amid ongoing links to Liverpool. Despite this uncertainty, the 21-year-old Belgium international revealed he had turned down a move to the Premier League last summer.

Recently, Bakayoko has been associated with potential transfers to both Liverpool and Arsenal, as well as Bayern Munich. His impressive individual performance this season contributed to PSV winning the Eredivisie. Reports from the Netherlands suggest that the right-winger could be available for as low as €50 million this summer.

Although Bakayoko will be participating with the Belgian national team at this summer’s European Championships, he has chosen not to clarify his plans for the next season despite the Premier League interest.

“The only thing I can say is that next year I will be on a football pitch somewhere,” Bakayoko told Dutch newspaper Het Belang van Limburg.

Additionally, Bakayoko acknowledged that the chance to move to the Premier League is not new. He confirmed that Vincent Kompany, his compatriot, attempted to recruit him to newly-promoted Burnley last summer.

“I received a call from Kompany last year, indeed,” Bakayoko added. “He then explained his vision. That was nice. I clarified my view. It was a good conversation, but that was last summer.”
