5 defensive midfielders Liverpool should target in the summer

Liverpool v West Ham United - Premier League
Jurgen Klopp will be a busy man in the summer

#1 Jorginho

SSC Napoli v Udinese Calcio - TIM Cup
Jorginho will be a dream signing for Liverpool.

Napoli plays with a similar style as that of Liverpool but concedes fewer goals compared to the Reds. They mostly deploy a specialist defensive midfielder on the pitch who narrows the gap between their midfield and defence and make themselves less explosive on the break.

From the last couple of seasons, Jorginho is doing that job for the Naples outfit and has really established himself as one of the best defensive midfielders in Italy. He has completed more than 2100 passes in the Serie A, which helps Napoli to build the game from the back.

His 43 interceptions in the league have helped Napoli maintain an impressive defence in the Serie A. He has been linked with Liverpool recently and will prove to be a brilliant signing for the Reds.
