Wataru Endo's move to Liverpool has been met with positive responses in Germany as VfB Stuttgart are set to lose their captain
After a long search to bring in cover for the departed Fabinho and Jordan Henderson, Jurgen Klopp appears to have found his ideal candidate in a leader for both club and country that is a specialist in mopping up play.
The ECHO reported last night that contact had been made with Stuttgart for the versatile midfielder, who can also slot into defence. The fee has initially been stated as in the region of £16m.READ MORE: Chelsea set to break new transfer record as Liverpool 'target' in Man City battleA common theme in the German media, kicked off by BILD, is a dispute over the player's price. Reports over there suggest the deal is closer to €20m rising to €25m with bonuses.
Klopp is known to be a popular character back in his native land, and Sky Germany begin their latest update with the headline: "Surprise deal! BL captain moving to Klopp." It is stated that a switch to the Premier League has long been the Japan international's dream, and although Stuttgart will be losing 'their most important player' and the situation is a loss on the sporting front, it is ultimately a financial gain to sell now.Local outlet Stuttgarter Nachrichten reiterate the fact this is a dream move for Endo, who claim he has 'repeatedly' said in the past he wishes to play in the English top-flight.
