Liverpool ‘pressure’ club into contract decision as £60m January transfer stance ‘comes to light’

Recent Liverpool Transfer Rumours and Updates on AC Milan’s Christian Pulisic and Brighton’s Joao Pedro

Liverpool have only a week left before they can bolster their squad with new signings, as the January transfer window rapidly approaches. Speculation surrounding potential deals is intensifying as the Reds look to strengthen ahead of the second half of the season.

Arne Slot has enjoyed a successful start to his tenure as Liverpool’s head coach, with the club holding a four-point lead at the top of the Premier League table as Christmas approaches. The Reds will return to action on Boxing Day, hosting Leicester City at Anfield for their final home match of the year.

With the January transfer window nearing, rumors about potential signings are becoming more frequent, and this is expected to continue in the coming days and weeks.

The ECHO now takes a look at some of the latest transfer news and rumors surrounding Liverpool.

One setback for Liverpool has been their pursuit of AC Milan’s Christian Pulisic. The Reds have been tentatively linked with the United States international in recent weeks, and with the January window approaching, speculation has increased. According to Calciomercato, Milan are planning to offer Pulisic a new contract to ward off interest from clubs like Liverpool.

Pulisic’s current deal with Milan runs until 2027, with the club reportedly holding an option to extend it by another year. There are also claims that Liverpool could face competition from Manchester United for Pulisic’s signature, but their chances may diminish if he agrees to a new contract with Milan.

In other transfer news, Liverpool continue to be linked with a move for Brighton’s Joao Pedro. Recent reports have suggested the Reds are interested in signing the Brazilian forward when the transfer window opens. Football Insider has confirmed Liverpool are still monitoring Pedro’s performances, with the club keeping a close eye on his progress at Brighton. The Seagulls have reportedly set a £60million asking price for the 23-year-old, who has scored four goals and registered three assists this season.

Liverpool are eager to add more attacking options to their squad, but Brighton are believed to be reluctant to let Pedro leave in January, potentially forcing the Reds to wait until the summer to make their move.

Liverpool targeting former Chelsea player as possible replacement for Mo Salah.

Liverpool are preparing for the possibility of life without their star player, *Mohamed Salah*. While the future remains uncertain for both the club and the player, Salah has entered the final year of his contract at Anfield.

The Egyptian forward has made a strong start to the season, netting four goals and assisting three for the Reds. His contributions have propelled Liverpool to second place in the Premier League after five matches and have aided their successful campaigns in the Champions League and the Carabao Cup.

Liverpool is reportedly exploring options for Salah’s potential replacement, with recent updates from Italy linking former Chelsea player *Christian Pulisic* to a move to Anfield. According to *Calciomercato*, the club is considering the AC Milan attacker as a suitable alternative.

Pulisic had a productive season with Milan, scoring 12 goals and providing eight assists in Serie A. He has continued this form into the new season, tallying three goals and two assists in five matches.

After a challenging tenure at Chelsea from 2019 to 2023, where he scored 26 goals in 145 appearances but struggled with fitness issues, Pulisic has revitalized his career at Milan.

Liverpool is poised to offer the winger another chance to shine in the Premier League as part of their attack under new manager *Arne Slot*. While the club hopes to retain Salah, if they cannot secure his commitment, Pulisic could emerge as an appealing option.

Trent Alexander-Arnold has outlined his demands to Real Madrid for leaving Liverpool

Once, the idea of Trent Alexander-Arnold leaving Liverpool seemed almost impossible. Now, with his contract ending this season, the right-back faces an uncertain future.

At 25, he has under 10 months remaining on his deal, which earns him £180,000 per week according to Spotrac. If a contract extension isn’t reached, he will become a free agent at the season’s end and can negotiate with clubs outside England starting in January.

Real Madrid, managed by Carlo Ancelotti, is reportedly interested in acquiring him. The club consistently seeks top talent and is in the process of assembling what many consider the best squad in football.

With stars like Jude Bellingham, Rodrygo, Kylian Mbappe, and likely future Ballon d’Or winner Vini Jr, Madrid boasts a formidable attack. However, president Florentino Perez aims to strengthen the defense, and Alexander-Arnold is a prime target.

Attracting him from Liverpool won’t be straightforward due to his strong ties with the club. Nevertheless, a recent report from Fichajes states that the England international has conveyed his terms to the La Liga side.

His first condition is a substantial salary increase, which Real Madrid could accommodate, as 11 players at the club currently earn more than he does at Liverpool (Capology). The second condition is to join a trophy-winning team—a request Madrid can easily fulfill, having won three major titles last season, including the Champions League.

With no signs of waning, Madrid continues to solidify its status as Europe’s premier club.

Christian Pulisic has been linked to an unlikely move to a Champions League newcomer and could pull off the unthinkable.

Germany’s capital and largest city, Berlin, has historically lagged behind teams from Bavaria and the Rhineland in athletic competition.

Because of this, Union Berlin’s ascent to the Champions League could signify a true change in the guard. Their emergence last season was truly surprising.

They urgently need to increase their squad depth and bring in some top tier players if they are to make the most of it, like all teams that reach Europe’s top table for the first time do.

Because of this, they have been linked to Christian Pulisic, who most likely wouldn’t have thought about moving to Union while he was a rising star at Borussia Dortmund and they were in the 2. Bundesliga, but may need to give it some serious thought going forward.

According to reports from Germany cited by Sport Witness, Union will make an attempt to acquire Pulisic after selling Sheraldo Becker to West Ham, a deal that is currently being finalized. The American winger’s response is unknown, but Chelsea will undoubtedly be pleased to see some genuine transfer interest in their unwanted asset, who has in essence been on the transfer list for a year.

After Chelsea accept their catastrophic loss, Inter Milan’s transfer strategy for Romelu Lukaku is revealed.

Romelu Lukaku is expected to leave Chelsea this summer, according to the latest transfer rumors from Chelsea. Inter Milan is interested in re-signing the striker.

Romelu Lukaku of Chelsea may soon make his first move, according to Inter Milan. Following his time with them in 2022–2023, the Italian superpowers are reportedly interested in re-signing Lukaku this summer.

Lukaku is a player that Chelsea would rather sell than loan out again. The 30-year-old was loaned back to Milan last summer after his return to the Premier League in 2021, which cost £97.55 million, fell short of expectations.

The club has acknowledged that they will undoubtedly lose money on the acquisition of Lukaku, despite last month’s reports that the sum of £34 million might be sufficient to complete the transaction.

According to a recent report from Tutto Mercato Web, Inter plans to use the money gained from Marcelo Brozovic’s transfer to Al-Nassr to pay for a long-term transfer for Lukaku. I Nerazzurri will concentrate on using the money to structure a deal after the Croatian midfielder last week agreed to a £15 million deal with the Saudi Arabian team.

A new meeting between Chelsea and Inter is reportedly scheduled for next week, according to the Italian report. Following ongoing rumors linking the goalkeeper to Stamford Bridge, discussions regarding Andre Onana’s situation may also include a move for Lukaku.

Recently, Giuseppe Marotta, the manager of Inter Milan, has kept quiet about the possibility of bringing in Lukaku this summer. Let’s not forget that the decision to sign Lukaku was made by Chelsea’s previous owners, he said.

“The new owners must therefore decide whether Lukaku fits into their project and future plans. Their approach will adjust if he is not.

“It goes without saying that they cannot consider selling him for a high price. The Saudi Arabian offer, I believe, was around €50 million (£43 million), which is still a considerable distance from the €115 million (£ 99 million) Chelsea fee that we received. “.

I don’t want to get into the dynamics, he added. On the goals we’ve established, we’re working as a team. I think a director should be ambitious and not be ashamed to set high goals, but the deals ultimately depend on the compensation and the individual terms.

We will assess everything over the coming days while keeping sustainability in mind. ”.

July 2, 2023
Christian Pulisic’s replacement has already been found as the deal has been completed and the $22m transfer to Chelsea has been confirmed

Chelsea transfer news: Christian Pulisic may be in doubt about joining AC Milan this summer following Ruben Loftus-Cheek’s announcement.

Chelsea could be in a race against time to make two big transfers in the coming weeks. With the US pre-season tour starting in just over two weeks, the club are still trying to prepare their squad for the new season.

Much has been said about the rampant sale of players who were integral to Thomas Tuchel’s 2021 Champions League-winning squad, but Mauricio Pochettino has little reason to back the underperforming, aging and overpaid players in that squad .

He is now under pressure to ruin the club’s fortunes. However, he will probably have to do it without Christian Pulisic.

The American is expected to join the players who left before him on a summer transfer from Stamford Bridge. After two seasons in football purgatory, Pulisic has entered the final twelve months of his contract.

Interest in the 24-year-old remains high after he was set to leave the club on loan to Manchester United or AC Milan last summer.

Juventus, Napoli, West Ham, Crystal Palace and Lyon have all clarified their positions. There is simply no shortage of potential suitors.

However, with high salaries and a general lack of funding across Europe, it’s not easy to find clubs willing to pay big bucks for the striker.

Like Kai Havertz, despite his troubles in England, he is an experienced player in European competition with a track record and plenty of promise. After Havertz was sold for £65m ($82m), Chelsea know the transfer market exists.

However, with Italy strapped for cash and Pulisic entering the final year of his contract with a small fee needed to secure a profit after four seasons in West London, there is still no deal between the two clubs. Although Pulisic reportedly reached an agreement on personal terms, no such position was found between the parties.

Given the goal of not having to take an unsatisfied player to America for pre-season, there is an upcoming timeline to complete this deal. Otherwise, Pulisic will either be left behind and stuck at Cobham or join the Tour with little hope of fitting into Pochettino’s plans.

There have already been positive talks between the parties following the sale of Ruben Loftus-Cheek to AC Milan for £18m ($22m) and that only increases the chances that a compromise will be reached. found here.

However, Milan are also looking for one of Pulisic’s USMNT teammates. According to Fabrizio Romano, they are in talks with Valencia midfielder Yunus Musah. The 20-year-old is another known target for Chelsea, who see the former Arsenal academy star as a potential addition to the squad ahead of the new season.

He has a hefty £86m ($108.2m) release clause, but after a disappointing campaign in Spain, a move for that amount is out of the question. However, he is seen as a serious option for just £15m ($19m) after an initial offer for his services is made.

Talks on that deal are expected to continue in the coming weeks and it leaves Chelsea with a dilemma. If they lose to Musah, not only would that cause one of their potential targets to be moved elsewhere, but it would also eat up Milan’s money which they would hopefully spend on Pulisic.

After Mason Mount, another great’ 24-year-old is eager to leave Chelsea now

Christian Pulisic is said to be frustrated at Stamford Bridge and desperate to leave Chelsea – despite claims Mauricio Pochettino wants to work with him.

Well, the USA international endured a miserable 2022/23 season, making just eight Premier League starts while Chelsea finished 12th.
Therefore, Pulisic wants out.

The Evening Standard understands Chelsea’s number 10 in west London is no longer happy and is determined to leave Stamford Bridge before the transfer deadline.

It comes after Calciomercato claimed Pochettino likes Pulisic and hopes to work with him at Chelsea. The American – who was once described as “great” by Jürgen Klopp – joins Mason Mount and wants to leave Stamford Bridge.

The England international is said to have no plans to sign a new contract with Chelsea with his current tenure set to expire in 12 months due to strong interest from Manchester United.

Chelsea set to take hit on Pulisic

A squad overhaul usually involves some tough decisions and Chelsea have accepted that defeats have to be made.

The Mirror believes Chelsea are happy to take £34m for Romelu Lukaku – who cost £97.5m in 2021 – and now, according to L’Equipe, the Blues are open to just £17m for Pulisic.

This would represent a £41m loss on the £58m Chelsea spent to sign the 24-year-old from Borussia Dortmund in January 2019.

That’s well over £100m lost on those two players alone, although it would be foolish for Chelsea to believe anyone will pay £97.5m and £58m for Lukaku and Pulisic at this point, given their poor form in the last times.

However, Chelsea can’t keep disgruntled players at Stamford Bridge, so it’s time for the Blues to cut their losses on some fringe options.

Liverpool believes a £40 million Chelsea star would fit well at Anfield

Liverpool need a defender like the £40m Premier League star.
Liverpool need a left centre-back like Chelsea’s Levi Colwill, Redmen TV presenter Paul Machin has told GIVEMESPORT.

The Reds are linked with RB Leipzig’s Joško Gvardiol but Machin believes the young Englishman could be a good alternative to the Croatian.
Liverpool Transfer News – Levi Colwill

In April, the Evening Standard claimed Levi Colwill was a top target for Liverpool and Manchester City.

Brighton & Hove Albion, where the 20-year-old spent last season on loan, are also interested. According to MailOnline, the Seagulls are considering making a £40m offer after Chelsea rejected a £30m offer.

In addition to Colwill, Liverpool have also been eyeing Gvardiol. According to Football Insider, the Merseyside club are “huge fans” of the Leipzig star, but a deal is unlikely due to his price tag.

It means Jürgen Klopp will have to explore other options, like Colwill.
What did Paul Machin say about Levi Colwill and Liverpool? Machin is adamant that Liverpool need a central defender of Colwill’s profile and believes his status at home would make him a good fit for the club.

Asked about possible alternatives to Gvardiol, the Redmen TV presenter told GIVEMESPORT: “I think someone like Levi Colwill at Chelsea, who has had a very good season at Brighton, can fill that left-sided centre-back role. He can.

” also a little left rear.
“Obviously there’s a big overhaul going on at Chelsea this summer. At the moment there doesn’t seem to be much added value from there.

They seem to be on the heels of some footballers which is why I don’t think Mason Mount has moved to Manchester United yet. But I think he suits the local culture better and fills the need for a left centre-back which I think Liverpool have.”

Will Liverpool sign Levi Colwill this summer?
Colwill could certainly be a great addition to this Liverpool side.

According to FBref, he ranks in the 92nd percentile for progressive passing and 88th for progressive carries among his positional peers.
He proves that the England Under-21 international is quite a modern defender.

However, are Chelsea ready to sell him? The answer is probably not as The Guardian reports, they want to add him to Mauricio Pochettino’s squad next season.
Unless Colwill pushes for a move, a move to Liverpool or elsewhere seems unlikely.

Chelsea decides on five players in the midst of a stunning £68 million transfer proposal.

Chelsea transfer news: The Blues have presented Juventus with a list of potential candidates along with the opportunity to accept a part-exchange deal and cash.

In order to give Mauricio Pochettino the resources he needs to be successful at Stamford Bridge next season, Chelsea appears prepared to do everything within their power to accomplish this. The Blues will be anxious to prevent a repeat of the 2022–23 season, which was their worst in the Premier League, with a return to the top of Europe’s elite the following year.

The Argentine will begin working for Cobham on July 1, giving him a full preseason to get ready for August. However, it appears that the new Chelsea head coach has already begun to plan, as a number of targets have been identified for the summer transfer window.

In Europe, The Blues are anticipated to be among the busiest clubs over the coming few months. According to recent reports, Todd Boehly is prepared to add up to six more players to the team this summer, depending on how many players leave.

Numerous football players have already been connected to moves to SW6. The three positions that London places the highest priority on are goalkeeper, midfielder, and attacker.

Chelsea reportedly moved to sign Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic after news broke that Premier League rivals Arsenal were interested in Kai Havertz. Prior to moving to Turin, the Serbian player had been rumored to be headed to the Premier League, but after a hectic season in Italy, he may now be looking for a new challenge.

A list of five Chelsea players has reportedly been made available to the Serie A team, according to Gazzetta dello Sport (via Football Italia). This is part of a potential player swap proposal. According to the report, Juventus has set a asking price of €80 million (£68 million) for the 23-year-old player, but Chelsea would prefer a part-exchange deal plus cash.

According to reports, that list includes USMNT winger Christian Pulisic as well as Cobham graduates Trevoh Chalobah and Ruben Loftus-Cheek, who have both been linked with moves to Italy. Romelu Lukaku and Kalidou Koulibaly, a former center back for Napoli, are also rumored to be options.

All five players have been the focus of rumors in recent weeks as it appears that their futures at Chelsea are in jeopardy. It is uncertain whether Juventus will accept the offer or hold firm to their asking price.

When Mauricio Pochettino may begin Chelsea transfer business as Inter Milan meeting planned

Chelsea face another busy summer transfer window, with Mauricio Pochettino officially taking over as manager in July

Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino is looking to sign a new striker, central midfielder and goalkeeper in the summer transfer window, according to football.

london. However, due to the size of their inflated roster, the Blues need to focus on developing the current squad members.

There are expected to be many departures from Stamford Bridge this summer, with the likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Mateo Kovacic, Conor Gallagher, Hakim Ziyech, Christian Pulisic and Ruben Loftus-Cheek facing an uncertain future.

N’Golo Kante is set to be the first start after agreeing a deal with Saudi club Al-Ittihad after his contract at Chelsea expired.

Mason Mount is another player who could leave the club, with Manchester United leading the race to sign the 24-year-old, football.

london reveals. Pochettino could be forced into more signings than expected, although the Blues recently pulled out of negotiations for a deal to bring Sporting CP midfielder Manuel Ugarte to the club.

Chelsea must also assess the future of Romelu Lukaku, who will return to Stamford Bridge this summer after his loan deal with Inter Milan expires.

The Italian squad played against Manchester City in the UEFA Champions league and were defeated 1:0. Meeting between the Blues and Inter is reportedly scheduled to discuss Lukaku’s future later this month.

The Belgian striker is believed to be keen to stay at San Siro next season – either on another loan or a permanent transfer.

Chelsea could consider using Lukaku in negotiations over some of Inter’s star players of interest to Pochettino – Andre Onana, Nicolo Barella and Lautaro Martinez have been linked with moves to west London.

All of that will likely be discussed when the two clubs meet this month – while Trevoh Chalobah and Loftus-Cheek could also feature in a potential swap deal for some Inter players.

Pochettino has already secured the signing of Ecuadorian talent Kendry Paez – but the youngster won’t join Chelsea until 2025 when he turns 18.

football.london understands the Blues are pushing for Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo but face competition from London rivals Arsenal.

Chelsea hope that once the Champions League final is over and Inter’s season is over, they can kick off their summer transfer business and try to meet Pochettino’s demands with the new arrivals.

Latest reports from Italy suggest the Blues have already agreed personal terms with Onana but Inter have set a £50million price tag for their goalkeeper.

Meanwhile, Barella has been in discussions internally with Chelsea that they should need more than two central midfield signings this summer given the amount of spending they could lose in that position.

June 10, 2023
Chelsea’s ideal transfer window would see Lautaro Martinez finish his move and the Pulisic deal be completed.

To give Mauricio Pochettino the best chance of guiding the Blues to greater heights, Chelsea will need to demonstrate their quality in the transfer market during the busy summer that lies ahead.

Things for Chelsea are already heating up with less than a week until the Premier League’s transfer window opens. As the Blues try to put together a team that Mauricio Pochettino can take to glory, there is still a lot of work to be done in terms of players who are coming in and going out.

With players like Mateo Kovacic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, and N’Golo Kante expected to depart, there will be a lot of turnover in the midfield. The west London team is considering Romeo Lavia and Moises Caicedo to replace them and support Enzo Fernandez in the middle of the field. It will be necessary to reduce the squad.

When he returned to Stamford Bridge, Frank Lampard observed that managing the sheer number of players was a significant problem. Further declaring his players to be disenchanted, the interim manager. Chelsea cannot afford to have another season like that.

The biggest daily challenge, according to Lampard, has been the squad’s overabundance. Coming in and attempting to work with large numbers of players who, for whatever reason, may be a little bit disillusioned about the fact that they’re not playing or they might be leaving. These issues must be resolved right away and can be done so. “.

football as a result. London considers Chelsea’s best-case scenario.

In a perfect world, events proceed swiftly and those players involved in departures quickly say their goodbyes. Along with the aforementioned players, Kante might remain to help Chelsea through the transition while Hakim Ziyech and Christian Pulisic sign contracts outside of west London. The former to Saudi Arabia, and the latter possibly to AC Milan.

Mike Maignan can fit in quickly to a backline that includes Ligue 1 players Trevoh Chalobah and Thiago Silva, as well as Malo Gusto, Benoit Badiashile, and Wesley Fofana from the same country. After concluding their business with the Serie A team, the Blues are able to convince them to let go of Mike Maignan.

Of course, the midfield will need some help, and Moises Caicedo shows up without forcing Levi Colwill to go the other way. Later, Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley enter into negotiations with Inter Milan to fulfill the club’s third requirement.

For the Blues to have a focal point where the talents of Raheem Sterling, Noni Madueke, Mykhailo Mudryk, and Christian Nkunku can flourish alongside him, Chelsea are able to use Romelu Lukaku to facilitate a transfer for Lautaro Martinez to the satisfaction of Pochettino.

A long conversation with the new Blues manager results in Chelsea making Mason Mount a last-ditch offer that shows his value to the team while still being in line with the club’s wage structure.

Paul Scholes provided Mauricio Pochettino, the new Chelsea manager, with the positions in which he must buy players, along with a rather unexpected assertion.

Scholes told Premier League productions, “I think he’s [Pochettino] going to have to buy a couple of center-halves, maybe a right-back, maybe a left-back, a whole new back four.” “About either goalkeeper, I’m not sure.

But I believe that moving ahead, I always watch a team and I’m happy when they generate chances. I believe that adding a center-forward to that, they’re always going to create chances and if you have a team that can score goals you’ve always got a chance.

Waiting for “talks with Pochettino” is a Chelsea target.
Chelsea is interested in signing striker Randal Kolo Muani this summer because Eintracht Frankfurt expects him to go.

Both Premier League clubs now know when a transfer can be considered because Manchester United and the Blues are competing for the same player.

Christian Falk exclusively revealed to CaughtOffside that Randal Kolo Muani’s decision would be made following the DFB Pokal Cup final and France’s future national games (until June 19).

He has time to make a decision and consider Manchester United’s ownership structure, which will influence their spending capacity.

He wants to wait and see whether there will be conversations with Mauricio Pochettino because Chelsea are still in the running.

Transfer setback for Andre Onana
Chelsea’s efforts to sign Andre Onana have suffered a severe blow. Recent rumors about the Inter Milan goalkeeper moving to Stamford Bridge have increased as Mauricio Pochettino allegedly seeks to add to his alternatives in goal.

Edouard Mendy and Kepa Arrizabalaga both have bleak futures at the club. The pair hasn’t performed well for the Blues in a while, and neither one of them is ready to accept anything less than the number one jersey.

So it would appear that Chelsea is looking for a new shot-stopper, and Onana has become a target. The Blues’ proposal to swap Kepa for the 27-year-old has reportedly been rejected by Inter because they need money to balance their books, according to Italian outlet TMW.
