According to Japanese media, after participating in a friendly match with Real Sociedad against the Japanese team Cerezo Osaka, Takefusa Kubo has responded for the first time to rumors linking him with Liverpool, stating that all players aspire to play for big clubs.
On July 25th, Real Sociedad played a friendly match against Cerezo Osaka as part of their pre-season preparations, winning 1-0. Takefusa Kubo featured in the game and had a good performance.
In recent days, rumors have linked Takefusa Kubo with Liverpool, with reports suggesting that Liverpool have offered a transfer fee of 65 million euros for Kubo, aiming to replace Mohamed Salah whose contract expires next summer. Since joining Real Sociedad in the summer of 2022, Kubo has consistently performed well, making it understandable why he would attract interest from a big club like Liverpool.
In response to the rumors linking him with Liverpool, Takefusa Kubo said, “Moving to a big club is something I think is very normal, and this applies to me as well.”
Regarding the reported transfer fee of 65 million euros, Kubo commented, “This would be good news for the club. There are always various rumors in La Liga, and a transfer of this kind (referring to the transfer fee) would help the club overcome difficulties and continue to grow. Of course, all clubs hope to retain excellent players.”
