Liverpool Boss Sets Sights On £9m Rated In Form Bundesliga Midfielder

Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson is lining up a January swoop for Borussia Dortmund’s highly rated in form youngster Nuri Sahin. The Turkish international has been in superb form this season helping his side to second place in the Bundesliga and appears to be a player that the Anfield manager is interested in bringing in to boost the club’s midfield.

Now in his fifth season in the Dortmund first team Sahin has been in sparkling form this term with his box to box performances attracting a lot of interest including from German giants Bayern Munich who appear to have a healthy interest in the young Turk.

Hodgson is hoping to have a decent injection of transfer funds in January and he may well deem a move for the talented midfielder as a realistic purchase for his struggling side. When Sahin first burst onto the scene in Germany he was considered one of the hottest prospects in the Bundesliga and is the youngest player to compete in the league aged just 16.

After a couple of consistent, but unspectacular seasons, he was loaned out for a season with Feyenoord where he did well and now the £9m rated 22 year old appears to be fulfilling his early promise.
