I don't watch much German football but from what I've read Matip is definitely worth a punt. Coming from the Bundesliga, cheap with lots of potential to come. Definitely a Klopp type of signing. Excited to see what he can do :)

Yup same here very excited with Matip signing. He looks solid and the type of CB we need. By the way the lad chips and scores time to time.

Matip Sakho

CB pairing would be awesome.

Great signing if true.

He's huge - similar to Sakho in stature - and built like a brick sh!!t house. Will improve our defence no end...

Is he out of contract because he's so good?  :ghostface:

He was not accepting another contract himself. Maybe he wants a different challenge.

Matip has been at Schalke since he was a school boy, They wanted him to stay alright, but he wants a new challenge.

The infamous Sky Sources are now reporting that Schalke defender Joel Matip has agreed a pre-contract deal to join Liverpool in the summer.

Don't be too excited about Matip. He will eventually become Martin Skrtle.

Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid have been banned from signing players in the next two transfer windows.


This may help us grab the likes of Gotze, with those 2 taken out of the equation, can probably rule out getting Tony Kroos tho

CB, but can also move into midfield. However, he's mainly a defender.

Yes. Haven't seen him this season TBH, but last season he was one of the best strikers in Europe and a perfect fit for us. Should have went for him instead of Benteke this summer.
