West Ham made an offer, and Jürgen Klopp “beats Man City to $33 million deal,” according to Liverpool transfer news.
Liverpool transfer news: Jürgen Klopp reportedly beat Man City to the signing of a $33 million defender, and the Reds have received a loan offer for Fábio Carvalho.
Further reinforcements beyond Alexis Mac Allister are expected to arrive over the next few weeks, and Liverpool will be making more moves before the summer is over.
There is work being done behind the scenes to ensure that the right players are recruited by the team, so last season’s disappointment shouldn’t happen again.
It would be ideal if Liverpool could sign a couple more players before the players report for preseason on July 8, giving them as much time as possible to adjust before the new season begins just over a month later.
While other clubs, like Arsenal, are starting to make moves and offer bids for Declan Rice, few will be able to find as much value in the market as Liverpool did with Mac Allister.
Here is the Liverpool . com take on the rumors surrounding the Reds’ upcoming transfers, starting with an intriguing young defender from the Netherlands who the Reds are reportedly scouting ahead of a potential swoop.
Micky van de Ven (Wolfsburg)
According to the Spanish publication El Nacional, Liverpool beat Manchester City to the signing of Wolfsburg center-back Micky van de Ven by agreeing to pay $33m (£26m/€30m), or three times what Wolfsburg paid for the defender.
The player, who has “said yes” to a move to Anfield, is said to have Jürgen Klopp “amazed” by his potential. The fact that Jörg Schmadtke has experience working with the 22-year-old and is familiar with him could be an advantage for the Reds.
The Bundesliga star seems like a solid option, with plenty of potential and the ability to fit right into the team, according to Liverpool .
com, which reports that the club is looking for a left-sided central defender. Given Liverpool’s need for defensive reinforcement over the coming weeks, he is definitely someone to keep an eye on.
Liverpool’s Fábio Carvalho.
Fábio Carvalho might be moving since he hasn’t received any playing time at Anfield this year.
According to Football Insider, West Ham has submitted a loan request for the playmaker, and Brentford and Burnley have also shown interest.
Carvalho is eager to play more, and West Ham might be a good team for him. They will need squad depth because they will be playing in Europe once more this coming season, and this level would be a good place to assess Carvalho’s long-term prospects.
It might make sense for Carvalho to go and get regular game time, but there might be a pathway to matches in the Europa League at Anfield, according to Liverpool . com. A major choice must be made, but a permanent departure appears highly unlikely given Liverpool’s desire to hold onto the talented young player.

Liverpool agree to a £27.4 million cost for a speedy signing, according to the report
German media reports confirm that Bayern want to sell Benjamin Pavard and the asking price has been set.
According to Bild (news image below), the France international informed Bayern before the final matchday that he wanted to leave this summer.
The reputable outlet claim that Liverpool are among clubs interested in signing the Blues defender, whose current contract with Allianz expires next year.
The news source ‘knows’ that Bayern are set to sell the 27-year-old for a €32m (£27.4m) transfer fee.
So the Merseysiders and other suitors will have to pay the price to secure the signature.
Another German source, the Abendzeitung München, revealed today that the Bundesliga champions are ready to ‘quickly’ sack Pavard during the summer transfer window.
AZ report a slightly different valuation of €30m and also claim that Liverpool are one of the possible destinations for the World Cup star (2018).
In the 2021/22 season, Jurgen Klopp’s men conceded just 26 Premier League goals. However, they conceded 47 goals last season.
The former Borussia Dortmund coach needs to significantly strengthen the defense by deploying a central defender and a right-back.
Our centre-backs have been inconsistent and the Reds are in desperate need of someone to fill the RB role for Trent who was at defensive average last season. We recently loaned Calvin Ramsay to Preston.
Benjamin Pavard has demonstrated his qualities both as a central defender and as a right-back.
He is a decorated star in his peak years with a very low price tag of £27.4m given today’s bloated market.
Therefore, Liverpool must accept the £27.4m asking price to quickly secure his signature this summer. What do you think?

Liverpool considering a summer move for versatile 17-goal striker
Liverpool have been linked with a transfer of Japanese attacking midfielder Keito Nakamura.
According to a report from the Daily Mail, Liverpool will have to compete for their signature with Premier League rivals Aston Villa.
The Japan international was in fine form last season, scoring 17 goals for LASK in all competitions in Austria.
The Reds need to add more goals and creativity to their midfield and Nakamura would be a great acquisition.
The 22-year-old can play as both a central attacking midfielder and a winger. His versatility will be an added bonus for Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp.
The striker is said to have a contract with LASK until the summer of 2025 and it remains to be seen whether Liverpool can agree a reasonable transfer fee for him.
The Japan international is expected to leave the Austrian club this summer and the possibility of a move to the Premier League would be an attractive option for him.
It would be a big step in his career and Liverpool could give him the platform to show his skills at a higher level.
It was a disappointing season for Liverpool and they failed to qualify for the Champions League. They need to improve their roster to get back into the top four and fight for big trophies again.
Signing someone like Nakamura would definitely help them improve in the final third.
It remains to be seen whether Liverpool can fend off competition from clubs like Aston Villa and sign the Japanese striker in the coming weeks.
