According to ItaSportPress, "Liverpool" team has already started negotiations with representatives of Mats Hummels regarding a possible acquisition of the "Borussia" defender during the January transfer window.
The "Reds" coach Jurgen Klopp worked with the center-back for seven years, winning two "Bundesliga" titles together, the "DFB-Pokal" cup, and reaching the Champions League final.
An Italian website reports that the former Borussia Dortmund coach is now eagerly looking at the opportunity to acquire his former pupil during his first transfer window in England.
It is said that lately Hummels has not been very happy in the Borussia team, and in order to sign the German national team player, Liverpool will have to compete against Manchester United, which has long been associated with the desire to acquire this defender.
