Liverpool, Chelsea among 3 EPL clubs who should sign Julian Brandt, and here’s why

Julian Brandt has always been regarded as the future of German football. Ever since his breakout in 2013, the 21-year-old has been one of the top performers for Leverkusen.

This season, however, the German International has taken his game into a new level and has already established himself as a key first-team regular under Heiko Herrlich, scoring five goals and providing six assists in all competitions.

However, Leverkusen might be in danger of losing their prized asset for a bargain price as the German International reportedly has a release clause of only €17m. Although Brandt has admitted that he would want stay at Leverkusen at the moment, a move elsewhere could soon be on the horizon for the German sensation in nigh future.

Here are three clubs who should make a move for Julian Brandt.

#3 Chelsea

Following an impressive season under Antonio Conte, the Blues have failed to live up to their expectations this season, often dawdling in the runners-up or third position in the table.

Although last season’s star Eden Hazard has still managed to continue his blistering form in the league, Chelsea are in definite need of offensive reinforcements, largely down to their shortage of attacking options in the final third.

Apart from Willian, Pedro and Eden Hazard, the Blues doesn’t have any recognised forward who make a difference up top. Therefore, Julian Brandt could prove to be an ideal buy for the defending champions. The German international has the quality as well as the potential to emerge as one of the best attackers in any league in the world.
