Although Jurgen Klopp’s team has only suffered one loss so far this season, analyst Owen Hargreaves is adamant that a crucial element is still missing.

Owen Hargreaves thinks that if Liverpool signed Fulham’s superstar Palhinha, they would truly be a title contender.

Palhinha, a midfielder for Fulham, is someone Owen Hargreaves believes Liverpool should sign to strengthen their title chances.

The Reds, who have only lost once in the Premier League thus far, defeated Nottingham Forest 3-0 at Anfield on Sunday. They were playing brilliantly. The latest rumours about Luis Diaz’s family largely overshadowed goals by Diogo Jota, Darwin Nunez, and Mohamed Salah.

Jurgen Klopp’s team appears to have adjusted well to the departure of both Jordan Henderson and Fabinho in the summer, as they prepare to face Luton Town and Brentford before facing the defending champions, Manchester City, in November.

With the addition of Ryan Gravenberch, Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexis Mac Allister, and Wataru Endo, the team’s composition has somewhat changed in the centre as they usher in a new era at the park.

But according to former Manchester United midfielder Hargreaves, the Reds are still lacking a single player who may significantly increase their chances of winning the championship this year.

According to Premier League Productions, the BT Sport analyst stated earlier today, “I think they are missing one player and that is a defensive midfield player.” Palhinha can help Liverpool win the league, in my opinion. He is that talented.

Since the Cottagers’ return to the Premier League last season, the Portuguese international has only gotten better. Rumour has it that Bayern Munich, the defending Bundesliga winner, may show interest in signing him in the summer.

Given his elite experience and international background, Marco Silva is said to be worth over £50 million, however the CIES valued him at around £20 million.
