Liverpool is 'interested' in signing a $52 million powerhouse for Anfield.
According to Sky Sports reporter Dharmseh Sheth, Liverpool are working behind the scenes on a £52m target

Liverpool are interested in signing France U21 and OGC Nice midfielder Khephren Thuram, Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth told GIVEMESPORT.

The Reds are looking to refresh their engine room having been tired and lethargic last season and started their window by signing Alexis Mac Allister for £35m, but now they have their sights set on Ligue 1 jewel Thuram.

Liverpool transfer news – Khephren Thuram

Liverpool have long been admirers of the Frenchman. Daily Express journalist Ryan Taylor told GIVEMESPORT that he was of “specific interest” to Jurgen Klopp and his backroom staff.

L’Equipe had also reported that talks between the relevant parties had been going on for weeks and that the player in question could cost around £52million.

According to “Football Insider”, the club is now close to the second midfield reinforcement in this window.

The report said the towering youngster is eager to make a move to the Reds and therefore the club is doing all it can to secure the signing of the much coveted phenom.

Just a week earlier, the same publication admitted Champions League returnees Newcastle United were also interested in the 22-year-old as they are looking for a midfielder at the box office this summer.

However, it appears the decorated Merseyside side are now leading the race.

Little has happened in terms of revenue since former Seagull Mac Allister moved north, but it now appears Klopp is taking a positive step forward in his pursuit of Thuram.

What did Dharmesh Sheth say about Khephren Thuram and Liverpool? Speaking exclusively to GIVEMESPORT, he said: “Khephren Thuram is another player they were interested in, including Vega.

” He’ll be one of those guys that Liverpool just do backstage and he’ll be one of those, where, you know, you make noises pretty late, and once those noises start, the deal gets will conclude fairly quickly. So I think they know who their targets are.

What would Khephren Thuram bring to the Liverpool midfield?

Many years in the tank would have been one of the main things that would have attracted potential buyers; especially for Liverpool, whose midfielder was anything but young from last season.

Thuram, son of French icon Lilian, is a relatively complete midfielder who excels in developing from deeper areas.

The 1.90m tall midfielder made 48 appearances for Nice in the 2022/23 season, scoring two goals and providing a further eight assists that season. But it’s his stats provided by FBRef that show why he’s so sought after.

In the last 365 days, the midfielder has achieved an impressive 1.63 kills per 90 and sits in the top 6% of those in a similar position for progressive transfers per 90, where he registers 3.25 .

Strengthening the center of the park has long been a priority for the German boss, and the need for fresh legs there has been reinforced by the many outings we’ll see in this window.

But now Liverpool are reportedly making an offer the La Liga side would be ‘very hard to refuse’.

Liverpool are preparing a surprise offer for Valverde

Liverpool prepared to make 'difficult-to-refuse' deal for Real Madrid player Federico Valverde
According to Spanish newspaper El Nacional, Liverpool are ready to make Real Madrid a whopping €90m (£77m) offer for their star midfielder.
Valverde has been linked with a move from the Bernabeu after Jude Bellingham recently joined Borussia Dortmund.

Toni Kroos and Luka Modric have also signed new contract extensions, putting heavy competitive pressure on the Madrid midfielder.

While Klopp knows all about the player from Liverpool’s various meetings with Carlo Ancelotti’s team in Europe, with Valverde providing the memorable assist for Vinicius Jr’s goal to win the 2022 Champions League final.
The report added that Real Madrid may find the Reds’ offer “very difficult to refuse”.

However, it would be a big surprise if the La Liga club were to allow him to leave, especially after his recent comments suggesting he is keen to stay in the Spanish capital.

In response to last month’s transfer rumours, Valverde dismissed the claims, stating (quotes via Liverpool Echo): “No, no. I’m in Madrid and I’m trying to enjoy every moment and leave my mark in the best club in the world.”

Liverpool transfer round-up: Ryan Gravenberch blow as Reds inform they’ve made significant mistake

Liverpool transfer round-up: Ryan Gravenberch blow as Reds inform they've made significant mistake
Liverpool have only made one signing so far this summer in Alexis Mac Allister, but several more are expected to be made as Jurgen Klopp plans a rebuild.

After failing to qualify for the Champions League, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp will oversee a rebuild this summer.

James Milner, Naby Keita, Roberto Firmino and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain all left on free transfers, while world champion Alexis Mac Allister signed from Brighton.

Liverpool are expected to make a number of other signings, with Klopp and newly appointed sporting director Joerg Schmadtke set to lead talks.

Although Liverpool have a tighter budget than some of their more spending-conscious rivals, they could soon benefit from increased investment. Here’s a roundup of the latest transfer news from Anfield.

Liverpool have suffered a setback in their search for Ryan Gravenberch as the midfielder insists his ‘aim is still to succeed at Bayern’ despite being linked with a move to Anfield.

The 21-year-old, who joined Bayern from Ajax last summer, told Dutch broadcaster Algemeen Dagblad: “I guess I’ll still be at Bayern next season.” So I’m really in.

“I’m at one of the top three clubs in the world. I find it beautiful and special. I don’t give up like that. My goal remains to succeed at FC Bayern.

The Liverpool transfer mistake

Liverpool transfer round-up: Ryan Gravenberch blow as Reds inform they've made significant mistake
Former Liverpool goalkeeper David James believes he made a big mistake by not replacing Mateo Kovacic, who joined Manchester City from Chelsea.

Speaking to King Casino Bonus, James said: “Someone who plays like Mateo Kovacic, I would have thought he would suit Liverpool better than Manchester City. I’ve had a crush on this guy for a few years.

now; the way he chooses.” The ball is high and crosses the lines with ease, it always looks like he’s going 100 mph. There’s something magical about the way he plays.

“There’s a lot of speed, energy and pace in the way Liverpool have played since Jürgen Klopp took over and someone like Kovacic would be ideal for that. The way Manchester City play tends to be much slower and less addicted to running with the ball, see Kevin de Bruyne’s passing stats.

“Pep Guardiola might think about a tactical rethink, Kovacic is not the type of player I thought Man City would be looking for. On the other hand, Erling Haaland wasn’t either and it worked well! I think that if a player like Kovacic went for the Liverpool though, I think it would be a good choice.”

With Manchester United’s move to Mason Mount stalled after their latest £55m offer was rejected by Chelsea, there have been suggestions Liverpool could dive in for the English star.

Chelsea could earn at least £60m and Klopp once called Mount a “£60m player” after making his international debut in 2019 alongside several other Chelsea academy graduates. “Tammy Abraham is a £60m player now,” L;p said at the time.

“Mason Mount certainly, if not more. [Callum] Hudson-Odoi was before that.” Liverpool have already strengthened their midfield with the arrival of Mac Allister, but further signings are expected with the departures of Keita, Milner and Oxalde-Chamberlain.
