# Virals: Liverpool ‘plot raid’ to sign Villarreal winger Arnaut Danjuma

[Liverpool](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2021/09/30/virals-liverpool-showing-great-interest-in-allan-saint-maximin/) reportedly have their sights firmly set on a move for Villarreal winger [Arnaut Danjuma](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2021/09/29/virals-liverpool-have-serious-interest-in-arnaut-danjuma/).

This follows [reports](https://www.vi.nl/nieuws/interesse-liverpool-geeft-man-utd-clash-voor-danjuma-extra-lading) claiming that the Anfield club were sending scouts to watch the 24-year-old at Old Trafford in the UEFA Champions League.

Those officials would’ve been suitably impressed as the Dutchman ‘tormented’ Diogo Dalot all evening and earned the [Man of the Match award](https://twitter.com/FootballOranje_/status/1443326150583980036) despite being on the losing side.

Now, according to a fresh report from [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-liverpool-plot-raid-to-sign-man-united-tormenter-danjuma-after-wednesday-night-transfer-mission/), as cited on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/footyinsider247/status/1443472739453521923), the Reds are plotting a ‘raid’ for the tricky winger.

The report states that Liverpool are ‘compiling a dossier’ on the [twice capped](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/arnaut-danjuma/nationalmannschaft/spieler/355861/verein_id/3379) Holland ace.

Danjuma’s display contained two shots on target, three successful dribbles, one assist and two key passes ([Sofascore](https://www.sofascore.com/player/arnaut-danjuma/827064)) as well as the [‘unplayable’](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/arnaud-danjuma-liverpool-transfer-news-25103180) tag from Owen Hargreaves.

This season the ex-Bournemouth ace has [scored three times and provided one assist](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/arnaut-danjuma/leistungsdaten/spieler/355861) in seven appearances – following on from [22 direct goal contributions](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/arnaut-danjuma/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/355861/plus/0/saison/2020/wettbewerb/GB2/verein/989) in the Championship last term.

### READ LIVERPOOL VERDICT

On the basis of last night’s showing, Danjuma would be a stunning addition to Jurgen Klopp’s [squad](https://www.liverpoolfc.com/team/first-team).

Full of pace, [trickery and direct running](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/323625/Show/Arnaut-Danjuma), the Dutch star would thrive under the German boss and likely improve his end product in no time.

Valued at £13.5million ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/arnaut-danjuma/marktwertverlauf/spieler/355861)), despite only arriving in Spain this summer the Reds would surely be confident of attracting Danjuma to Merseyside.
