According to InterLive.it, Italian champions Inter Milan are keen on signing Liverpool midfielder Wataru Endo.
The Japanese midfielder has hardly featured for the Reds this season under new manager Arne Slot.
The departure of Jurgen Klopp from Anfield and the arrival of Slot at the club have totally turned around the career of Endo with Slot’s team selection making it clear that the midfielder is not a part of his plans.
The emergence of Dutch midfielder Ryan Gravenberch has worked against Endo, with the former cementing his place in the side under the leadership of Slot.
Endo has made just two one-minute cameos in the league this season as Slot’s side have moved to the top of the league.
In seven Premier League matches this season, the Merseyside club have won six games and moved ahead of Manchester City and Arsenal in the league standings.
They have done that without the contribution of Endo, who could now be allowed to leave the club with Inter Milan interested in his signature.
The Serie A club are looking to strengthen their midfield options and see the Liverpool star as the ideal candidate to do that despite his age.
