Share
Liverpool are poised to be active in the transfer season, with Arne Slot looking to make an effect on the Reds squad after taking over from Jurgen Klopp at Anfield this summer.
The transfer window is open, and Liverpool will be aiming to shape their squad for the next era.
Arne Slot joined from Feyenoord at the end of the season to succeed famed manager Jurgen Klopp. The Dutchman confronts a difficult task in following the Germans’ lead, but he hopes to generate results swiftly.
Michael Edwards and Richard Hughes, the club’s sporting director and transfer coordinator, will aid Slot during the summer months.
They, too, will be aiming to alter the club’s future after their arrival.
With that said, Mirror Football looks at some of the most recent transfer news from Merseyside.
AC Milan holds negotiation with Liverpool’s target.
Liverpool has been linked with Feyenoord star Mats Wieffer this summer, but will face heavy competition. It has been stated that Arne Slot wishes to reunite with his old charge.
According to Corriere dello Sport, the Rossoneri have already spoken with Wieffer’s agents, and additional conversations are planned in the coming days. The Serie A club hopes to reach an arrangement with the 24-year-old’s representatives before attempting to persuade Feyenoord.
The defensive midfielder is not part of the Netherlands’ Euro 2024 squad, thus a trade might happen sooner. The defensive midfielder has a contract until 2027, therefore Feyenoord will be content with their situation.
Slot Request
Liverpool will look for a new defence at the behest of new manager Slot, and according to CaughtOffside, Goncalo Inacio will be their major target.
The 22-year-old has reportedly been under consideration since November and won a league title with Sporting. Inacio has since travelled to Euro 2024 with Portugal.
The defender elected to stay with Sporting in January for personal reasons, but is now considering a move to the Premier League. According to the source, Liverpool hopes to complete his transfer within the next few weeks.
Leny Yoro’s decision
Another young defender on Liverpool’s agenda. However, Liverpool may be outbid for the Lille defender.
While the French club has admitted that they may have to part ways with the 18-year-old, the youngster looks to have his sights set on one location. Despite attention from Liverpool and Manchester United, it looks that Real Madrid has Yoro’s heart.
According to the Express, the Bernabeu is Yoro’s dream destination, and the players’ camp is now working to make it a reality. A cost has yet to be agreed upon, although Yoro is said to be wary about moving to England.

Alisson Becker Liverpool transfer decision following’massive’ offer.
Alisson Becker has rejected a “massive” offer to leave Liverpool and join Saudi club Al-Nassr this summer, according to Football Insider.
Al-Nassr is looking for a new custodian, but the Brazil international has declined an offer to join the Saudi Pro League club.
According to sources, the Middle Eastern club is now looking to recruit Juventus custodian Wojciech Szczesny, 34, whenever the transfer window reopens.
Alisson, 31, is still Liverpool’s number one custodian and has a contract until 2027.
After rejecting down a move to Saudi Arabia, Alisson seems set to stay at Liverpool.
There have been numerous changes at Liverpool recently, with Arne Slot succeeding Jurgen Klopp as manager, and Michael Edwards and Richard Hughes joining behind the scenes.
However, after rejecting a summer move to Al-Nassr, Alisson appears to be staying in Merseyside for the time being.
The Brazilian has been Liverpool’s uncontested first choice since arriving for £67 million from Roma in 2018.
During his time with Liverpool, the goalkeeper has made 263 appearances and kept 114 clean sheets, 11 of which came in his 32 games last season.
Caoimhin Kelleher, 25, has been Alisson’s backup for the past few years, but he might leave Merseyside this summer if a good offer is made for his services.
According to Football Insider, the Irishman intends to seek a transfer away from Anfield in order to obtain more regular first-team football abroad.
James Trafford, 21, has been highlighted as a potential successor after Football Insider reported on May 27 that Liverpool and Newcastle are ready to compete for the Burnley custodian this summer.
