    Report: Liverpool is willing to accept a £42m signing fee.
    Liverpool has already let go of three midfielders this summer, but they have also been successful in luring away two high-caliber midfielders.

    Khephren Thuram has been associated with the Reds for some time, and reports suggest that they are prepared to agree to a fee to sign him this summer.

    The Reds value the Les Bleus star, who was among the best players in the French league last season, according to French outlet Foot Mercato, which revealed this two days ago.

    In order to sell their prized asset during the current window, the news source stated that Nice would be open to hearing offers of around £42.8m (50 million euros).

    The Reds, La Liga champions Barcelona, and German champions Bayern Munich are reportedly interested in signing Thuram, according to a Spanish source, Nacional, who made the claim yesterday.

    The difficulty facing the Catalan giants is that they are unable to pay the requested price. However, Liverpool and the Bavarians are prepared to come to an agreement on a fee of £42.8m to employ his services.

    The 22-year-old midfielder recently made it known that he wants to transfer to Anfield (Born and Red), according to Fabrizio Romano.

    The Frenchman ought to be enticed to reinforce the center of the park if Liverpool does wind up losing Henderson or Fabinho.

    Thuram enjoys tackling and breaking up play like Fabinho does, and he can press opponents relentlessly like Hendo can to force them back.

    He can also dribble, making him more effective in the attacking third than the Anfield duo. The Nice star had a direct hand in ten goals during the previous season.

    What do you think? Should Liverpool agree to pay £42m to sign him?

    Jurgen Klopp will be keeping a close eye on 5 young players during preseason.

    Jurgen Klopp will be keeping a close eye on 5 young players during preseason. Many Liverpool fans will be hoping to get their first glimpse of the impact the club’s new signings can make as preseason for the club begins in earnest.

    Jurgen Klopp will be interested in seeing what Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai can bring to the table this season, but he will also be eager to keep an eye on a number of players who do not have a high price tag attached to them.

    If the Reds’ season goes according to plan, they will play enough games in all competitions to significantly tax the biggest teams, even with new additions.

    The club’s young players may be able to help in this situation by playing in domestic cup competitions and the Europa League to lighten the load of their more experienced teammates.

    Here, we highlight five academy standouts who stand the best chance of using the preseason to position themselves for such a position this season.

    Ben Doak

    Jurgen Klopp will be keeping a close eye on 5 young players during preseason. Doak, who was a key member of the first-team squad at the age of just 17 last season, will look to improve once more this time around in order to secure more senior appearances.

    The teen quickly won fans over during his five appearances in 2022–2023 thanks to his direct running style, close control, and fearlessness.

    Perhaps because Szoboszlai has experience playing on the wing, there is now more competition for spots in the attack as a result of this information.

    Doak, however, has high expectations from Liverpool, and should he develop as anticipated, he will undoubtedly be competing for more playing time regardless.

    Jarell Quansah
    Jurgen Klopp will be keeping a close eye on 5 young players during preseason.

    The ease with which Quansah adapted to that task last season bodes incredibly well for his future because League One is an unforgiving environment for any 20-year-old centre-back to try and learn their trade.

    During a half-season stint with Bristol Rovers last season, the defender from Warrington quickly became a fan favorite and now returns to Merseyside with a wealth of new knowledge.

    Naturally, not everything went well; Gas manager Joey Barton noted the youngster’s career-defining moment as receiving a last-second red card against Portsmouth.

    But by the time Quansah’s loan period was over, his manager had no doubt that he would apply what he had learned and succeed all the way to the top.

    Bobby Clark

    Jurgen Klopp will be keeping a close eye on 5 young players during preseason.
    During the last season’s break for the World Cup, Clark provided the ideal illustration of how to use any brief time with the senior team to catch the manager’s attention.

    The former Newcastle academy midfielder participated as the Reds competed in the Dubai Super Cup to get ready for the new season.

    And in the win over AC Milan, he contributed a particularly eye-catching assist that was worthy of mention in Klopp’s post-game press conferences.

    In order to build on the two first-team appearances he earned in 2022–23, Clark will aim to repeat the same performance in the upcoming friendlies.

    Marcelo Pitaluga

    Jurgen Klopp will be keeping a close eye on 5 young players during preseason.
    Liverpool might not need to search the market for a replacement homegrown goalkeeper if Caoimhin Kelleher eventually leaves Anfield this summer.

    For the 2024–25 season, Pitaluga, who joined the Reds from Fluminense in 2020, will be considered when determining eligibility.

    Of course, the most crucial factor is whether or not the Brazilian is prepared after an injury severely limited his opportunity to experience first-team football while on loan at Macclesfield last season.

    However, he will be eager to do everything in his power in the upcoming weeks to convince Klopp that he ought to be the next cab off the rank in the event that Kelleher leaves.

    Lewis Koumas

    Jurgen Klopp will be keeping a close eye on 5 young players during preseason.
    Koumas’ success scoring goals at the U18 level last season has earned him some early participation in the senior team’s preseason this year.

    In the coming weeks, the talented teen, who in January signed his first professional contract, will look to demonstrate that he can advance to first-team standards.

    Although Koumas’ small stature may work against him in terms of playing a significant role next season, his versatility on the frontline won’t hurt his chances.

    And even though he isn’t quite ready to move to the senior side just yet, this summer will be a crucial learning experience.

    Rumor Spreading: Liverpool and Lavia Agree on Personal Terms.

    Rumor Spreading: Liverpool and Lavia Agree on Personal Terms.
    Liverpool FC reportedly reached a personal agreement with Southampton’s Romeo Lavia while they wait for their captain’s decision on whether to move to Saudi Arabia.

    Whether Liverpool would need to make room for Lavia by moving a midfielder like Thiago had been the subject of conflicting reports. However, it appears that Henderson’s potential departure will finish the job.

    With the player committed to the Reds, hopefully the club can now start the slow-burning process of haggling a transfer fee with Southampton. Logic suggests that the price would be slightly higher than £40 million, but I would certainly anticipate Liverpool to reduce it from the £50 million fee that has been floated over the past week. That is as a result of the buy-back clause going into effect at the same price in 2019. If Soton approves the player’s transfer during this window, City will also be entitled to a portion of the transfer fee. Even though the player has only one season of experience in the top flight, the talent is undeniable.
    Nevertheless, the price is still high.
    We’ll see if Jörg Schmadtke and crew can complete the task.

    More news…….

    In the midst of the Anfield transfer turbulence, Florian Plettenberg, a Liverpool player, has been seen in Germany.

    Rumor Spreading: Liverpool and Lavia Agree on Personal Terms.
    Sepp van den Berg of Liverpool reportedly has the power to arrange a transfer to a Bundesliga team soon.

    This information was provided by Sky German’s Florian Plettenberg via Twitter during a period of significant change behind the scenes with potential offers for Jordan Henderson and Fabinho.

    The tweet in question suggests that the defender, who briefly made an impression at Schalke after a six-month injury layoff, would be interested in a loan assignment.

    Even though it’s admittedly challenging to see where the young Dutchman fits in around players like Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate, it’s still debatably premature to say with certainty that he doesn’t have a future in the Liverpool backline.

    It’s a potentially exciting option we could look to exploit if the player can have a fruitful stint on loan in the German top-flight. He stands at 6’4″ and has already played fairly prominently as a right-sided center-back while on loan.

    It’s a discussion that is ultimately supported by “ifs,” “buts,” and “maybes,” of course, and it’s unlikely that we will be in a position to gamble next summer given rumors about the need to restock the back four in 2024.

    Liverpool is prepared to move to acquire Levi Colwill.

    Rumor Spreading: Liverpool and Lavia Agree on Personal Terms.
    Levi Colwill, a Chelsea center-back, is available for negotiation, according to 90min.

    Despite Chelsea’s insistence that Colwill is not for sale, sources have confirmed to 90min that Liverpool is confident that they can persuade Colwill to leave Stamford Bridge.

    Colwill, who was a key player in England’s victory at the European Under-21 Championship this summer, made a significant impression while on loan at Brighton and Hove Albion last year. The Seagulls have already made a few unsuccessful attempts to sign him on a long-term basis.

    Brighton first proposed a permanent contract in January, and Chelsea has said repeatedly since then that they do not intend to sell the defender.

    Even though Chelsea has insisted that Colwill will have opportunities to succeed this upcoming season, 90min has been informed that Colwill is not yet convinced that Chelsea should be his long-term home.

    Colwill’s current contract with Chelsea is set to expire in 2025, but as of right now, negotiations have not moved forward. Players who refuse to sign new contracts will be sold, Chelsea has made clear to their team. Mason Mount and Mateo Kovacic’s departures this summer are particularly notable.

    Liverpool has been concentrating on upgrading their midfield this summer, and now that Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai have already been signed, they are also looking at defensive options. Colwill is in their sights as a potential new center-half, and Liverpool has been focusing on upgrading their midfield as a whole this summer.

    They had expressed interest in Micky van de Ven of Wolfsburg, who is currently in negotiations with Tottenham, but Colwill has emerged as their top target, and they think he wants to move to Anfield.

    Colwill said earlier this week that he was still debating his options but insisted that playing regularly is something he wants at Chelsea.

    “I’ll talk to my family, talk to everyone I need to talk to, and then I’ll decide. Colwill stated, “I have to play at the end of the day to hopefully get there [England senior team] and go to the next camp.

    In addition to confirming that he will speak with Colwill about his plans, new Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino added, “I need to get a feel for him. I want to know what he’s thinking. what he anticipates. Of course, I also expect him to pay attention to what I ask of him after that. “.
