Lfc transfer news: Reds receive £42 million offer response following Khvicha Kvaratskhelia boost.

Arne Slot has yet to make his first signing as Liverpool manager, but that could be about to change as the Reds’ recruitment staff ramps up their work ahead of next season.

Liverpool are now focusing on Euro 2024 in Germany.

Several Reds stars are participating in the competition. While Arne Slot will monitor how his present players are doing, he will also be interested in the event for a different reason.

Liverpool may use a few recruits ahead of next season, and they could even move for some of the Euros’ top players. They could face competition from a number of Premier League opponents.

Rumours are already starting to circulate. Take a look at the biggest speculations and verified moves from Anfield:

Yoro bid was rejected.

Leny Yoro, a Lille defender, is currently one of Europe’s hottest defensive properties. Liverpool are determined to be in the running for his services.

According to Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo, the Reds have already made an offer of €50 million (£42 million) to recruit the Frenchman.

However, this has not gone well with the French side. Lille has flatly rejected that offer and will only hear bids of around €60 million (£50.7 million).

It is now up to Liverpool to decide whether to increase their offer. They may face competition from elsewhere in Europe. Manchester United has added him to its shortlist, while Spanish heavyweights Real Madrid are also interested.

Liverpool handed Kvaratskhelia boost.

Liverpool’s prospects of signing Napoli star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia have been significantly improved. The Georgian winger’s agent has revealed that his client wishes to leave the Serie A team.

Mamuka Jugeli told Sport Imedi via La Gazzetta dello Sport: “I don’t want people to believe that Kvara wants to stay at Napoli.” We want to leave, but we’re waiting until the Euros conclude so we don’t disturb Khvicha. “My top priority is to join a Champions League team.”

Napoli has already responded, pointing out that Kvaratskhelia is still under contract in Naples. Previously, Liverpool was connected with a bid for the 2023 Serie A winner.

Liverpool target finishes audition

From one winger to another, Belgian wideman Johan Bakayoko made an early transfer tryout as his country began its Euros. Bakayoko impressed for PSV Eindhoven last season, winning a place in the Belgium team.

It has been reported that new Liverpool manager Slot has approved a move for the 21-year-old. He is regarded as a possible alternative for Mohamed Salah at Anfield.

Bakayoko has previously been linked with a move to England, with Burnley and Brentford both reportedly interested. Belgium kicked out their Euros campaign against Slovakia in Group E.
