Liverpool has a €275 million transfer shortlist as Klopp gets ready to go on a spending binge.

As they are ready to compete for the Premier League title, Liverpool has created a transfer shortlist of six players that manager Jurgen Klopp would like to sign in 2024.

The Reds, who are presently leading the English premier league, want to strengthen their squad during the January transfer window by bringing in a number of reinforcements.

Furthermore, Caught Offside claims that they have already begun making plans for the summer, listing six individuals as potential targets.

According to the previously cited source, Liverpool wants to bolster their right flank, centre midfield, and centre back positions.

Liverpool’s shortlist of six players to pursue in 2024 includes Goncalo Inacio, Pedro Neto, Assan Ouedraogo, Manu Kone, and Johan Bakayoko, according to Caught Offside.

The Reds may have to pay a staggering €275 million if they decide to sign all six talents. This is because each player has a report price tag linked to them.

Will Liverpool invest heavily in 2024?

Liverpool is apparently still looking for a midfield player, despite paying €172 million on four midfield players during the summer transfer window of 2023.

Thuram, Kone, and Ouedraogo have all been highlighted by Klopp as viable targets, according to Caught Offside.

Liverpool has a €275 million transfer shortlist as Klopp gets ready to go on a spending binge.

According to Corriere dello Sport and Sky Germany, Thuram and Kone have a reported price tag of €40 million each, while Florian Plettenberg reports that Ouedraogo has a €20 million release clause.

Furthermore, Inacio’s release clause is worth €60 million as a result of the new deal he inked with Sporting CP the previous year.

Liverpool targetReported asking price
Pedro Neto€70m
Goncalo Inacio€60m
Johan Bakayoko€45m
Khephren Thuram€40m
Manu Kone€40m
Assan Ouedraogo€20m

Both Bakayoko and Neto have been considered as potential Mohamed Salah long-term successors, but they would be quite expensive for Liverpool. TEAMTalk claims that Wolves would let Portuguese winger Neto go for €70 million, while Metro claims that PSV would demand €45 million for Bakayoko.

Liverpool may or may not be willing to invest heavily once more, but they have great plans for 2024, so it may get expensive.

A transfer target for Liverpool has already revealed his “dream,” with Fernando Torres hint spotted

Morten FrendrupA possible summer transfer for Morten Frendrup is being watched by Liverpool, and the Genoa midfielder has already expressed his thoughts about joining Anfield.

Even though the January transfer market is still open, Liverpool might be planning for the summer already. Any significant inflows are far more likely to occur then than they are right now.

Still, a lot of people will be watching Anfield this month. With the season almost passed halfway through, the Reds have set a high bar for themselves as the Premier League leaders, and their opponents will be trying to obtain an advantage in the transfer market.

It remains to be seen if Liverpool adds any players to the roster this month, however Jürgen Klopp has downplayed any rumours that additions have already been made. Despite the possibility that no one will show up right away, the club is nonetheless keeping an eye out.

The ECHO reports that Liverpool is keeping an eye on Genoa midfielder Morten Frendrup and will probably continue to do so for the rest of the campaign since a January transfer seems improbable. Despite Wataru Endō and Alexis Mac Allister both playing at number six this season, it appears the Reds are still looking for a fresh addition.

An intriguing, if rather unexpected, target is Frendrup. The 22-year-old, who assisted Genoa in their return to Serie A last season, is enjoying a successful season with the Italian team.

 

A transfer target for Liverpool has already revealed his "dream," with Fernando Torres

If Liverpool supporters are curious in the defensive midfielder, they may have come across an interview published by Serie A a few weeks back. Even before the ad begins, titled “The best ball-winner in Serie A,” it portrays a bright future for the Reds.

However, a minute or so later, something will have captured Liverpool supporters’ attention even more. The first photo, which the interviewer is showing Frendrup, is of the midfielder when he was younger, standing in front of a poster of Fernando Torres from his time at Anfield.

According to Frendrup, the photo was taken while he was attending a boarding school in his home country of Denmark, where he was hoping to sign Daniel Agger for Liverpool from Brøndby. Although the Torres poster isn’t mentioned in the conversation, it was already established that the midfield player adores Liverpool.

A 16-year-old Frendrup discusses his aspirations to play professional football and his experience relocating to a boarding school in an interview published in 2018 with the Danish publication Sjaellandske Nyheder. He says in the interview that Liverpool is his favourite team and that he hopes to one day move to Anfield.

I’ve always had this dream, and I think it will come true. I think I can succeed if I work hard,” Frendrup remarked. The story also features the image of the Torres poster, with the caption describing the former striker as Frendrup’s hero.

If acquiring a new number six is still a top priority later in the season, Liverpool will seem to be headed in the correct direction. The Reds are obviously interested in Frendrup, and a transfer may fulfil his ambition.
