Liverpool
£676,000-a-year player makes a plea for Liverpool move
Share
Liverpool has now gone through two consecutive transfer windows without signing a new center-back. Despite exploring options, they have opted not to make any moves, partly due to the rise of Jarrel Quansah.
Joel Matip departed the club as a free agent at the end of last season, leaving Liverpool’s management with a clear but limited focus.
Recent reports suggest that Liverpool is in a position to secure a signing for under £50 million.
Currently, Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate are the primary choices for the center-back role, with Quansah as backup. Michael Edwards understands that the team could face a defensive crisis with just one injury, emphasizing the need for action in the upcoming months.
One player actively seeking a move to Liverpool is Bologna’s Sam Beukema. The Dutch defender expressed his interest, stating (CorSport via SW): “There are so many fantastic teams in England, so if another great club like Liverpool came along I would be happy to go there one day.”
Beukema had a standout season with Bologna, helping them qualify for the UEFA Champions League for the first time. The 25-year-old made 29 appearances in Serie A under current Juventus manager Thiago Motta, achieving 13 clean sheets.
Earlier this month, he played for 62 minutes at Anfield during a Champions League match that Arne Slot’s team won 2-0.
Beukema’s contract with Bologna runs until the summer of 2027, and he earns approximately £676,000 annually. Whether he will realize his ambition of playing for Liverpool remains to be seen.

Agreement Reached – Liverpool Signs “Really Offensive” Player
Liverpool takes youth development seriously, and in recent years, many academy players have progressed to the first team. The club also has a practice of acquiring young talents from other clubs.
One such player is Trey Nyoni, who joined the Reds from Leicester City in 2023. He started his career with Liverpool at the U-18 level before moving up to U-21. His senior debut came in the FA Cup against Southampton.
Nyoni participated in Arne Slot’s pre-season tour in the USA, scoring against Sevilla. He has also captained Liverpool’s U-19 team in the UEFA Youth League match against AC Milan and has become a regular for the U-21 squad.
Recently, Trey Nyoni signed his first professional contract with Liverpool, marking a significant step in his development. Having turned 17 in June, he has now officially committed to the club with a new deal.
Trey Nyoni Earned His Liverpool Contract
Dominik Szoboszlai has a strong admiration for the teenager, considering him a “really offensive player.” Additionally, manager Arne Slot has acknowledged his talent, making it no surprise that the Reds have secured his contract.
Primarily an attacking midfielder, he can also play as a central midfielder and left winger. This versatility may accelerate his integration into the first team, with Slot likely keeping a close watch.
What Nyoni needs right now is a steady mindset. After signing his first professional contract, it’s easy for the 17-year-old to become overwhelmed, so he must remain grounded.
The future for Nyoni is uncertain. With time, he may receive an opportunity under Arne Slot in the first team, but patience will be essential. We’ll have to wait and see how things develop.
