Liverpool needs an urgent defense, find Van Dijk's replacement.

Liverpool has started talks with Schalke's team to secure defence services, Ozan Cabak.

Kabak is expected to be Dutch Deputy Virgil Van Dijk, after the latter was severely damaged against Everton.

Coach Jurgen Klopp, considers the 20-year-old as an important investment for the future and is a fan of it.

The odds are for such a move to be closed in January, as Schalke is in crisis.

Schalke owes 30m euros, but is expected to finalise for 20m euros.
