Ragnar Klavan completes Cagliari switch

Liverpool defender Ragnar Klavan has officially completed a move to Serie A outfit Cagliari, it has been confirmed. 

The Estonian international passed a medical with the Italian club on Friday afternoon ahead of a switch believed to be worth a fee priced at just £2m.

Klavan arrived at Liverpool in 2016 after performing impressively in the Bundesliga with Augsburg. Jurgen Klopp had been a long-term admirer of the player and recruited the experienced defender to provide cover at the back.

The 32-year-old never truly forced his way into Liverpool’s starting line-up on a regular basis but provided a sturdy deputy when called upon. 

Nevertheless, Klavan will now be looking to secure first-team football in Serie A, with a move to Cagliari being confirmed. 

Liverpool are well-stocked with options in central defence and with Nathaniel Phillips emerging through from the academy, appear to have a bulk of strong defensive alternatives should the likes of Virgil van Dijk sustain injuries.
