So, naturally, the search for a replacement will be on.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">And Neuhaus could be on the list of candidates to replace the departing Dutchman. He ticks several boxes for Jurgen Klopp. Working under Marco Rose, he has picked up the ability to play in an intense pressing system. At the age of 23, too, Neuhaus should be entering close to his prime years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Wijnaldum offers so much to Liverpool that will be sorely missed. And, whilst Neuhaus may not be able to replace his leadership at Liverpool, he can replace his midfield versatility.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The German international has proven at Gladbach his ability to play in a number of position and formations. Against <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2021\/02\/12\/leipzig-sign-defender-angelino-man-city\/\" target=\"_self\">Manchester City<\/a>, for example, he played in a 4-3-3 system as a number eight- a role Wijanldum is all too familiar with.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Yet, against Wolsfurg, he played in a 4-2-3-1 as a double pivot- again, a role Wijnaldum has played so well for Liverpool before. The fact is, Neuhaus seems an ideal replacement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">He ticks the box for age, ability, adaptability and the systematic knowledge of playing in both a 4-2-3-1 and a 4-3-3.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<br \/>\n<a id=\"Sgvbz9RXRH5gMBUwfGO0uQ\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1231282577\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'Sgvbz9RXRH5gMBUwfGO0uQ',sig:'Gy7Sl305x7SUz_kiMYhvLK4FmCYiWqwADhRiMo69cNg=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1231282577',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to Christian Falk, Liverpool are interested in making a summer move for Borussia Monchengladbach midfielder Florian Neuhaus.
