Liverpool transfer news and gossip, including the latest on Victor Osimhen and Federico Chiesa
Following the arrival of Alexis MacAllister, Liverpool are looking to bolster their squad even more.
Jurgen Klopp is believed to be interested in adding more flesh to his midfield with the departures of all of James Milner, Naby Keita, and Alex Oxlade Chamberlain this summer, with the likes of Ryan Gravenberch and Khephren Thuram being just two names that have recently gained traction.
However, the Reds appear to be pleased to bolster their attack, with Roberto Firmino leaving and Mohamed Salah’s future replacement being discussed, even if the Egyptian is still in his prime.
With pre-season now less than a month away, rumors have began to intensify, and with more people expected through the door, it is once again going to be an exciting couple of weeks for Liverpool fans.
Here are the most recent Liverpool transfer rumors…
Mr. Victor Osimhen
Victor Osimhen and his Napoli team are rumoured to be in talks with up to three Premier League clubs in the coming weeks, with Liverpool, Manchester United, and Chelsea all interested in the 24-year-old forward.
Osimhen was the leading striker in Serie A last season, helping the Azzurri to their first Italian title since 1990 with 26 goals in 32 games. The Reds are one of three Premier League clubs said to be in negotiations, according to Belgian writer Sacha Tavolieri.
Mr. Federico Chiesa
Furthermore, The Mirror adds that Liverpool is interested in signing Juventus attacker Federico Chiesa. Klopp has long admired the Italian international, who excelled during Roberto Mancini’s team’s penalty shootout victory over England at EURO 2020.
Chiesa has continued to thrive with Italian side Juventus following his move from Fiorentina and could now seek pastures new given the club’s persistent off-field difficulties. Newcastle United are another Premier League club thought to be monitoring the issue involving the 25-year-old.
Van de Ven, Micky
According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, Tottenham has Micky Van de Ven on their’shortlist’ for a center-back. Liverpool have also been linked with a deal for Wolfsburg’s star, who impressed in the Bundesliga during the 22/23 season.
The Dutchman with the left foot is known for his agility, power, and skill. Van de Ven is comfortable playing out of the back and has excellent defensive skills as well as a natural ability to read the game. Liverpool, according to the ECHO, are also seeking for a long-term alternative on the left side of central defense.
