Virals: Liverpool outcast Sheyi Ojo ‘wanted’ by European clubs

Liverpool attacking midfielder Sheyi Ojo is reportedly a target for multiple European clubs in the final week of the transfer window.

The 24-year-old has become a perennial loanee during a decade long spell on Merseyside and could be about to face a big decision.

Having spent time away at Rangers, Fulham, Reims, Wolves and most recently Cardiff City following a £2.25m arrival from MK Dons as a teenager in 2011 (Transfermarkt), Ojo could be about to move on permanently.

That’s according to a report from the Liverpool Echo, as cited by Paul Gorst on Twitter, claiming that the one time England Under 21 starlet is attracting interest from the continent.

The report claims that Olympiakos and Club Brugge have ‘made contact’ with the Anfield club regarding the winger – who was a goalscorer as Liverpool Under 23s beat Merseyside rivals 3-1 Everton on Monday.

Ojo, who has earned 42 England youth caps overall, has made 13 senior appearances for the Reds, scoring once and registering four assists.

READ LIVERPOOL VERDICT

Valued at £2.7million and under contract until 2023 (Transfermarkt), the Londoner must surely be facing a departure from before the deadline passes.

Highly unlikely to feature in Jurgen Klopp’s plans at any stage of the season having been usurped by teenage sensation Kaide Gordon as well as numerous others, Ojo needs a move for the resurrection of his own progression above all else.

Ultimately things haven’t worked out as hoped for Ojo and the winger should be pushing for a move away alongside Loris Karius before 11pm next Tuesday.
