Liverpool has shown significant interest in Orkun Kökçü, reportedly making an 80 million Euro offer for the player. The club has been keeping a close eye on him through scouts who observed his performance during a Champions League match against Atlético de Madrid. Kökçü is currently contracted with Benfica until 2028, with a release clause set at 150 million Euros, which poses a challenge for the transfer. Arne Slot, who has previous experience working with Kökçü, is well-acquainted with his abilities.
