26 February 2015 11:13

It seems that Liverpool are being tipped to sign Atletico Madrid's Arda Turan in the Summer if reports in Spain via the Metro are to be believed. The Reds have been linked with a number of attacking options in the past few weeks and it has been reported that Liverpool are set to push for his signature when the transfer window opens.

The 28-year-old became the first Turk to win the La Liga title and was also the captain of Galatasaray where he played for 11 years as a youth and senior player. The attacking midfielder is mostly known for his exceptional ball control, vision and dribbling skills.

The report suggests that £25.6m is the figure required to bring the player to Anfield with Brendan Rodgers confident that he can secure his signature.

The player from Istanbul made a total of 197 appearances for Galatasaray, scored 45 goals and made 76 assists before moving to Atletico in 2011. At Atletico Madrid the player has made 164 appearances, scored 22 and assisted with 32.
