Liverpool’s Joe Gomez position as Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany considers a transfer raid

Vincent Kompany wants Joe Gomez to join Bayern Munich. Liverpool is understood to have a defined transfer strategy ahead of the window’s opening on Saturday.

Liverpool plans to take a tough position on Joe Gomez this summer. It comes amid reports of transfer interest from Bayern Munich, who are now led by Vincent Kompany.

Gomez had a good final season under Jurgen Klopp, playing the most minutes in a single season since joining Virgil van Dijk in the title-winning defence. However, he had to be a jack of all trades, featuring on the defence line and even in midfield. His adaptability has earned him a call-up to the England squad for the Euros.

It might also be beneficial to incoming manager Arne Slot; however, with Gomez still not first choice at any position, interest from Bayern Munich will force a decision.

Liverpool is prepared to make that decision for everyone else. According to the Mirror, the club considers Gomez one of its most valued players and is planning to deliver a ‘strong hands-off warning’.

It is expected that he will be a key player under Slot. Whether this means he’s expected to compete for a starting spot remains to be seen, but Liverpool probably believes it will be hard to obtain comparable high-level defensive depth for the money Kompany and Bayern are willing to spend.

Barring a spectacular U-turn by Liverpool, Bayern Munich will have to search elsewhere. It is apparently interested in Bayer Leverkusen’s Jonathan Tah.

Liverpool shares Kompany’s admiration for Chelsea’s Levi Colwill. But both are likely to be disappointed, as the Blues are once again unwilling to move the defender.

According to Liverpool.com: Liverpool has taken a totally logical attitude. A huge offer could put it to the test, but unless something amazing comes up, it makes no sense to deprive Slot of such a valuable squad member.

The other variable is Gomez’s personal position. He was likely content with the minutes he received last season, but he may still be looking for a starting role someplace, especially if he prefers to play center-back in the future.

Hopefully, he will be satisfied to continue playing a key part for Liverpool. It has just been made quite obvious how highly the club regards him, and with any luck, it is reasonable to expect Gomez to play a significant role under Slot.

Liverpool and Tottenham battle for ‘world-class’ Premier League talent with a £60 million release clause.

Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are expected to be active in the summer transfer window as they seek to strengthen their squads ahead of next season.

The Reds were in the Premier League title fight for much of the season, but experienced a late-season slump, finishing third in the table.

Meanwhile, Tottenham were in contention for the Champions League until mid-April, but ultimately finished fifth.

A Premier League star who has been linked with both Liverpool and Tottenham has now been confirmed to have a release clause.

Crystal Palace sources have revealed to TBR Football that England player Eberechi Eze has a release clause in his contract.

Eze signed his current contract late last year, and it was thought that it contained a provision.

TBR can now confirm the existence of a clause, which we are informed is comparable to Michael Olise’s and worth at least £60 million.

While Eze’s clause, like Olise’s, is active, Palace has made it clear to both players that they do not want them to leave and that if they do, their clauses should be paid in full – rather than accepting any form of deal.

Eze, who has been named to England’s Euro 2024 squad, has several suitors, including Liverpool, Tottenham, and Newcastle, all of which are aware of his contractual status.

Liverpool and Tottenham are buoyed by Eberechi Eze’s release clause

We’ve all seen how excellent Eze is at the top level, so the news that the ‘world-class’ 25-year-old has a release clause is fantastic for Liverpool and Tottenham.

Obviously, a player of Eze’s calibre will not come cheap, but if a club is willing to activate the release clause, Palace cannot stand in his way.

Let us see what occurs in the coming weeks. Without a doubt, Eze would be an excellent addition to any of the Premier League’s best teams; the only question now is who is ready to put up the money.
