Liverpool prevented a disappointment against Ipswich on Saturday, but the fact that things are going well does not mean that there is a quiet end to the transfer period.
The summer of The Reds was just as quiet as possible when it comes to newcomers, with Federico Chiesa who came over from Juventus and Giorgi Mhaldashvili – who only arrives in the summer – the only other permanent acquisition. The Arne Slot team had no need for new faces, with the team that finished third last season turned out to be capable.
With a week to go, however, a few more chances can occur. Liverpool is well supplied for the time being, but a few early injuries can derail the progress they have made under their new boss.
As always, there is the small issue of three contracts that will end soon. Here are the newest transfer lines from Mirror Football from Anfield.
Liverpool is tipped to match Napoli for Borussia Dortmund star Karim Adeyemi, where Corriere Dello Sport indicates that they are closely monitoring the attacker. The German international can play all over the front line and is mentioned as a potential successor to Mohamed Salah when the Egyptian leaves this summer.
If the team of Arne Slot finally opts for Adeyemi, this can have consequences for Napoli's search for Manchester United outdoor player Alejandro Garnacho. The football director of the Italian club, Giovanni Manna, has indicated that the leaders of the Serie A will not pay too much.
'These are two names [Garnacho and Adeyemi] Who are interesting for us, they are players we like, but they are not the only ones, “Manna told Dazn. 'We try to evaluate a few things and look at the opportunities, but we will certainly not pay prices that are too high. outside the market value. ”
Virgil van Dijk was not in the mood to look beyond this season when he discussed how many games he could still play in a Liverpool shirt. He played 300 times in the red colors on Saturday and led the team to a victory on Ipswich.
“I have no idea,” said Van Dijk. “How many are there left this season? Hopefully they are guaranteed and then I don't know what the future will bring.”
The Dutch International is one of the three senior stars without a contract this summer, together with Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold. The young goalkeeper Vitezslav Jaros, who made his Premier League debut this season, could also leave for free after the season.
Liverpool has been a fan of Jorell Hato for a long time and a summer approach is expected for the Ajax star. According to TeamTalk, however, they could even move before the teenager.
18-year-old Hato became the youngest player who was captain of Ajax last season at the age of 17. He generally plays as a left back, although his debut came in the Netherlands as a substitute for Liverpool player Virgil van Dijk halfway through the game. back line.
The young person is one of a number of players mentioned as a potential successor for the long term of Andy Robertson. The latest reports show that an offer of around £ 25 million could be sufficient to get a deal, and that some alternative options could cost considerably more.
