Reds could help injury crisis by signing Southampton star on loan

Liverpool are set to sign Southampton centre-back Steven Caulker on a season-long loan, according to reports.

The Reds are currently suffering from a major injury crisis, with no fewer than 11 first-team players all struggling in recent weeks.

However, it’s the defence that’s been hit the worse and Jurgen Klopp is ready to act in the transfer window to ensure that he has enough players at his disposal.

The likes of Dejan Lovren, Mamadou Sakho and Martin Skrtel have all been injured recently, leaving Klopp with just Kolo Toure as a fit and recognisable centre-back.

Caulker to step-in

According to reports, Liverpool will take Caulker on a loan-deal until the end of the season to ensure that they have enough cover for the injured stars.

Caulker is currently on-loan at Southampton, but due to a lack of playing-time, his loan could be terminated, which would see him return to Queens Park Rangers, his parent club.

Liverpool would then approach QPR with a loan bid until the end of the season.
