Liverpool conducts further talks to sign Kennet Eichhorn from Hertha BSC

Liverpool has intensified its pursuit of Hertha BSC midfielder Kennet Eichhorn, according to Sky Germany. Recent discussions have taken place as Liverpool looks to secure the 16-year-old talent, despite the player being unable to compete in England until he turns 18. If the transfer goes through, a loan deal with Bayer Leverkusen has been suggested as a possibility. Previously, Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich withdrew from the competition for Eichhorn due to financial demands, although Dortmund is still said to be interested.
