Former Liverpool Managing Director Christian Purslow Recommends PSG Star as Next Marquee Signing

Liverpool's former managing director Christian Purslow reckons Liverpool should go out and sign Paris Saint-Germain star Marco Verratti.

The 54-year-old believes the club ought to reinvest the Philippe Coutinho money received from Barcelona to get the Italian, who is without doubt one of the finest central midfielders in Europe.

The 25-year-old has been at the Parc des Princes since 2012 after signing from Pescara, and has flourished in Ligue 1, but it has been reported that he could be one of a number of players at risk of being sold in order to offset the money that will need to be paid for loan star Kylian Mbappe.
