Liverpool is willing to spend 60 million euros to secure the signing of Kaishu Sano, a Japanese international midfielder who has impressed in the Bundesliga with Mainz 05 and whose value has soared after the 2026 World Cup, putting him on the path to the Premier League.

Anfield's club has identified the versatile midfielder as the perfect reinforcement for their midfield, preparing a record proposal that Mainz will hardly be able to refuse in this summer market.

The board of the German squad acknowledges that retaining their great Asian asset will be an extremely complex task given the strong interest from the English league. Therefore, the noble leadership of Mainz is already gearing up to close what will be the most profitable sale in the entire history of the German institution.

Liverpool, interested in signing Kaishu Sano

According to the latest information revealed by the German media outlet Sport Bild, Premier League emissaries are closely monitoring the player's progress. The formal offer being prepared by Liverpool would amount to 60 million euros, almost doubling Mainz 05's previous sales record.

To date, the most expensive departure recorded in the German team was that of the winger Brajan Gruda, transferred to Brighton & Hove Albion during the 2024/2025 season for a total of 31.5 million euros. The deal for the Japanese international will completely shatter that financial record.

This colossal increase in value represents a resounding success for Mainz's technical department, which acquired the player's sporting rights in the summer of 2024 for just 2.5 million euros, a figure that now seems minuscule given his performance.

During his time in the German top flight, the 25-year-old midfielder quickly adapted, securing an undisputed starting position and establishing himself as one of the best playmakers in the league. In his 84 official matches played, the player contributed 2 goals and 5 assists.

The rise of Kaishu Sano in the 2026 World Cup

The main catalyst for his meteoric rise in the international market has been his outstanding performance in the World Cup tournament held in North America. The midfielder acted as the undisputed anchor for the Japanese National Team, demonstrating exceptional physical presence and tactical rigor in every match.

Kaishu Sano played the full 90 minutes in three of the four official matches played by the Japanese team in the global event. His journey with the national team ended prematurely in the Round of 16 with a close 1-2 defeat against Brazil.

It was precisely in that high-stakes duel against the Seleção where the 25-year-old midfielder scored the crucial 1-0 goal and had previously provided a fantastic assist in the resounding 4-0 victory against Tunisia during the group stage.

His superb ability to cover ground in midfield and his excellent passing vision have ultimately convinced British scouts. Despite having a valid labor contract until June 30, 2028, Mainz understands that the time has come to cash in.

The risk of dismantling the Mainz 05 midfield

The imminent sale of the Asian midfielder is not the only headache the German management faces in this eventful month of July. The German technical department also watches with great concern the future of Nadiem Amiri, the other main engine of their midfield.

The German international is now under the radar of RB Leipzig after his standout performance in the World Cup, potentially dismantling Mainz's midfield entirely. This situation requires the management to demand the immediate and guaranteed payment of 60 million euros to finance a deep reconstruction.

The top executives at Anfield aim to expedite the bureaucratic procedures to prevent other Premier League competitors from interfering in the bidding war. Liverpool's coaching staff believes that adding the Japanese player will infuse the squad with the freshness, dynamics, and physical presence needed to contend for all titles in the upcoming season.
