Arne Slot is eyeing a £30 million deal for Liverpool after the defender made an exit demand.

Crysencio Summerville

Before he talks with his team ahead of the impending transfer window, new Liverpool manager Arne Slot has a lot on his plate, and one player has already broken ranks and made a transfer demand.

With Arne Slot officially taking over as head coach of Liverpool, the Dutchman may be active in the transfer market.

Following Jurgen Klopp’s departure, the Reds are doing well after rebuilding last summer. But further acquisitions are anticipated as Slot aims to contend for significant awards in his rookie campaign.

Merseyside has already been connected to a number of players, and rumours about big names like Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah continue.

Outgoings are also anticipated in the upcoming weeks, as Liverpool is now managed by a new person. As we get ready for the window, Mirror Football has all the most recent Anfield news here.

Slot sights a £30 million deal

Liverpool is reportedly interested in acquiring Crysencio Summerville, a winger for Leeds United.

The 23-year-old Dutchman is anticipated to depart Elland Road after Daniel Farke’s team was unable to secure promotion through the play-offs. He was named Championship Player of the Season after scoring 19 goals and dishing out nine assists for Leeds.

The £30 million-rated winger has reportedly drawn interest from a number of elite teams, including Liverpool. Leeds is expecting offers for its highly sought-after asset during the forthcoming transfer window, according to recent reports.

Varela links clarified 

There is no truth to reports suggesting Liverpool will make a £60 million bid for Alan Varela, a midfield player for FC Porto.

Argentina, Varela’s home country, had been the subject of reports that the Reds were ready to move on the 22-year-old, who had also been connected to the team the previous season.

Senior club officials have denied any connections to Varela, according to The Echo, though the story also suggests that Liverpool may look to acquire a defensive midfielder in the near future.

Defender requests to leave

Sepp van den Berg, a central defender, has taken aim at Liverpool and asked to be moved after they placed a £20 million price tag on him.

After failing to make an impact at Anfield, the 22-year-old Dutchman is keen to continue playing first-team football after shining while on loan with Mainz 05 in Germany last year. And he’s now pushed the team to sell him, but not before berating them for putting so much stock in him.

In an interview with De Telegraaf, Van den Berg stated, “[Liverpool] didn’t exude confidence in me all this time, but you do want to hinder my future.” “I want to continue playing every week and advance my own growth. I adore playing away from home against clubs like Stuttgart, Leipzig, Leverkusen, Dortmund with 70,000 spectators, and Bayern Munich away against Harry Kane. I get challenged every week against teams like that.
