So, he joined FC Luzern on loan a couple of years ago to play regularly and develop his career before joining Club Brugge permanently last summer.<\/p>\n<p>The youngster enjoyed a promising campaign in the Belgian Pro League last season, making 12 goal contributions in 49 appearances across all competitions.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, he helped his side win the league. Having shown glimpses of his high potential for Club Brugge, Stankovic has secured his place in the Serbian national team.<\/p>\n<p>After being impressed by his recent development, Inter have decided to bring him back this summer. Now, <em>TEAMtalk<\/em> claim that Stankovic, the son of Inter legend Dejan, has attracted a lot of attention in recent times, as <a href=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/topics\/manchester-united\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Man Utd news\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Manchester United<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/topics\/tottenham-hotspur\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"5\" title=\"Tottenham news\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tottenham<\/a> Hotspur were interested in signing him this summer before shifting focus to other targets.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Liverpool enquired about the details of signing Stankovic during negotiations with Inter Milan regarding Curtis Jones. However, despite selling the Englishman to the Italian giants, Liverpool decided not to buy Stankovic.<\/p>\n<p>The Reds are happy with their current midfield options and focused on upgrading the flanks this summer following <a href=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/tag\/mohamed-salah\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"37\" title=\"mohamed salah\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mohamed Salah<\/a>\u2019s departure as a free agent.<\/p>\n<h2>Stankovic to Liverpool<\/h2>\n<p>However, the report state that Liverpool are considering reinforcing the engine room next year and remain keen on purchasing the Serbian international.<\/p>\n<p>He is valued at around \u00a327m by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transfermarkt.co.uk\/aleksandar-stankovic\/profil\/spieler\/780136\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Transfermarkt<\/span><\/a> and still has a contract until 2031. So, the Italian champions aren\u2019t in any rush to sell him.<\/p>\n<p>Stankovic is a 6ft 2in tall right-footed midfielder and can provide cover in the defensive midfield and box-to-box roles. He can play threading passes between the lines, is efficient at taking set-pieces, and is solid in defensive contributions.<\/p>\n<p>The youngster is a talented player and possesses the necessary physical attributes to flourish in the <a href=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/tag\/premier-league\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"21\" title=\"Premier League\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Premier League<\/a>. Moreover, he hasn\u2019t reached his prime yet.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, he would be a shrewd acquisition for Liverpool should they purchase him.
