The Estonian captain Ragnar reveals how his former liverpool team mate
persuade him to move to Cagliari. The Centre back has signed a deal until 2020 with the Serie A club, leaving Liverpool two years after transfering from Augsburg for an estimated Fee of £1.8m. The defender sought advice from the likes of Mohamed salah And Alisson before transferring to Serie A.
Ragnar stated : I had offers from several teams, including in other countries, but Cagliari really wanted me. Darijo Srna advised me to come here, as I talked to him through Dejan Lovren. Other Liverpool teammates like Alisson, Salah and Lucas Leiva all spoke highly of Serie A. I’m certain we’ll do great things here and I am really fired up. The city is wonderful and so are the fans, I can’t wait to get started.
The transfer was completed immediately after the Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp warned European clubs against attempting to sign liverpool players for cheap.
Klopp said: I said it before, that's a bit of the problem of the transfer window, we close in England and the whole of Europe was waiting for that moment and start now trying for dumping prices to get good football players. Nobody should think that with Liverpool. That will not happen. We are not in a situation of financial need where we have to do that. I want to have a very better squad together and the more players.
