    Talks held: Liverpool pondering selling a'super crucial' player; already looking for his replacement. Liverpool may try to replace one

    Liverpool may try to replace one of their present team members this summer, pending the player’s sale.

    According to Football Insider, Kostas Tsimikas is garnering interest ahead of the transfer season, which opens on Friday, and discussions are thought to have taken place about whether the 28-year-old could go.

    The Reds’ recruitment team has identified left-back cover as a priority for the off-season, and talks with starting full-backs Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold about potential new contracts have begun.

    Could Liverpool potentially cash in on Tsimikas during the summer transfer window?

    Having diligently served as Robertson’s backup for four years at Anfield, he may be looking for a fresh challenge after only making 26 Premier League starts during his time on Merseyside, despite Jurgen Klopp earlier praising his’super essential’ contributions to the squad.

    Should the Greece international depart in the coming months, the Reds’ leadership must ensure that there is appropriate backup in place, since the Scotland captain will not be able to play in every match.

    Joe Gomez can come in at left-back if necessary, and young players like Owen Beck and Calum Scanlon will be hoping for more first-team opportunities next season, but Arne Slot may want to bring in an experienced natural option in that position.

    It wouldn’t be the biggest surprise in the world if Liverpool accepted a reasonable offer for Tsimikas this summer, but only if the hierarchy is sure that a reliable replacement can be promoted from within or brought to Anfield.

    More news……

    The 26-year-old Premier League midfielder is being considered by Liverpool for a high-profile move.

    Liverpool intends to bolster their midfield during the summer transfer window. As they get ready for life under new manager Arne Slot, the Reds will be busy in the transfer

    Liverpool intends to bolster their midfield during the summer transfer window.

    As they get ready for life under new manager Arne Slot, the Reds will be busy in the transfer market.

    In order to lead Liverpool back to the pinnacle of English football, new managers Richard Hughes and Michael Edwards are keen to bring in fresh players.

    According to a Calciomercato story, Douglas Luiz, a midfielder for Aston Villa, is being pursued by several teams, including Liverpool.

    Under manager Unai Emery, the 26-year-old was one of Villa’s standout players as they made it into the Champions League the previous year.

    Luiz is the perfect prospective addition to the Reds midfield, which has been lacking in spark, given his expertise and record in the Premier League.

    The Brazilian midfielder made 35 Premier League games last season, tallying 5 assists and 9 goals.

    Along with Ollie Watkins, the striker, and Emiliano Martinez, the custodian, Luiz has been a vital member of Villa’s squad under Emery.

    Luiz is a creative contributor and a defensive midfielder who can also score goals.

    Liverpool needs a fresh midfield addition after this season’s failure to contend with Manchester City and Arsenal for the Premier League title.

    Furthermore, the Reds were compelled to sign a new midfield player during the summer transfer window due to Thiago Alcantara’s departure this summer.

    Douglas Luiz has potential to excel at Liverpool

    In addition to protecting the back four, the set-piece expert from Aston Villa can create opportunities from deep and aid the Merseyside club in improving as a team.

    The 26-year-old has the abilities to develop into a top player.

    The South American midfielder has the opportunity to advance in his career by playing with elite players by signing with a larger club.

    Luiz is the only midfield player Liverpool and the new manager Slot need to search for if they want someone with Premier League experience and someone who can perform well in the league.

    Seven injured Liverpool players might miss the encounter against Man City.

    Maxim Bajcetic Bajcetic is also not playing since he experienced a setback in his recuperation from an injury. His current issue is unrelated to the one that ended his historic campaign the previous year. But there's no date of return for the young Spanish man. When Liverpool takes on Manchester City at the Etihad on Saturday, November 25, in their Premier League match at the top of the standings, there are several injury concerns.

    Prior to their victory over Brentford, Ibrahima Konate and Joe Gomez were sidelined by two further injuries for Liverpool.

    Prior to the arrival of Thomas Frank’s dominant team, Liverpool was concerned about the health of both captain Virgil van Dijk and Ryan Gravenberch, who were out from the team’s midweek Europa League loss to Toulouse due to illness and injury, respectively.

    Gravenberch was sidelined in the 3-0 victory over Brentford, but the rest of the team did Van Dijk the world of good as he put up another outstanding performance at the back. Additionally, Reds manager Jurgen Klopp had few choices in the midfield because Alexis Mac Allister was suspended for one game and had injuries to Curtis Jones, Thiago Alcantara, and Stefan Bajcetic. Trey Nyoni, a 16-year-old who is highly regarded, had to be included on the bench for the first time since he moved from Leicester City in the summer

    However, defence issues also beset Klopp, as Gomez and Konate joined Andy Robertson on the sidelines. Due to his injury, Konate has been left out of Didier Deschamps’ France squad for their matches against Gibraltar and Greece this month. Axel Disasi, a defender for Chelsea, has taken Konate’s position.

    The official diagnosis pertaining to Konate and Gomez remains undisclosed. Although Mac Allister is expected to make a comeback for Saturday’s top-of-the-table encounter at the Etihad Stadium against Manchester City, Klopp is concerned about some players’ fitness.

    Ibrahima Konate

    Even though Konate’s condition is now unknown, it is serious enough that he will miss France’s next international matches due to it.

    After the international break in October, the 24-year-old returned with a problem that kept him out of Liverpool’s victory over Everton. Last month, Klopp, who has been vocal about his displeasure with the number of fixtures and player welfare, made fun of Les Bleus manager Gérard Deschamps. “He (Konate) did not start tonight,” he declared. Not even in the squad, he is.

    “I adore everything about Ibou, but we’ve taken advantage of this opportunity to give him a little break. Ibou struggles with injuries occasionally, and Monsieur Deschamps gave him 90 and 87 minutes of play in the last two games. Of course, he could have played tonight, but he has another show on Sunday.

    “Tell Monsieur Deschamps that’s how you rest a player,” Ibou instructed. Not thirty minutes only. However, we couldn’t be happier with Ibou. He’s an incredible boy and a great footballer, and France is lucky to have him.

    Fabrice Hawkins of RMC Sport reported that Konate sat out the Brentford match due to a hamstring injury. He sent the following tweet: “Ibrahima Konaté will not be playing for Liverpool this weekend due to a minor muscle injury he sustained during the warm-up on Thursday in Toulouse while playing in the Europa League. It will take around two weeks to treat his damage.”

    Joe Gomez

    Seven injured Liverpool players might miss the encounter against Man City.

    Considering how well the England international has started the season, Gomez’s absence was unexpected and disappointing.

    The 26-year-old’s play declined the previous campaign, and the Reds were eliminated from the Champions League. He has, nevertheless, thus far demonstrated defensive consistency and adaptability, which has been essential to the team’s early-season success.

    Ryan Gravenberch

    Gravenberch might have made an appearance against Brentford, as Klopp had previously suggested, but he would be ready for selection during the international break.

    Ryan has a minor niggle in his knee, according to the Liverpool boss, who made this announcement on Wednesday. “We hope Brentford has a chance and he will return after the international break, but it doesn’t assist for today. He was running today (Wednesday). This is the reason Toulouse isn’t present.

    Curtis Jones

    Seven injured Liverpool players might miss the encounter against Man City.

    Jones has missed the last three games for the Reds due to a “low grade” hamstring injury he sustained during Liverpool’s Carabao Cup victory over AFC Bournemouth, but he should be back for the trip to Manchester City.

    “Curtis had a minor hamstring problem. He will return after the international break, but not before. It’s a very minor hamstring strain,” Klopp remarked.

    “After receiving a red card for lack of rhythm and winning the games, he was in fantastic shape but felt a touch off. When I took him off against Bournemouth, he was resting in the dressing room and felt something, but he didn’t feel anything there. We had a very low-grade scan, but it cleared him.

    Andy Robertson.

    Seven injured Liverpool players might miss the encounter against Man City.

    Robertson is also not present. After sustaining a dislocated shoulder during the Tartan Army’s loss to Spain in October, the captain of Scotland has been sidelined.

    Following surgery for the injury, Robertson is anticipated to make a comeback in the upcoming year.

    Thiago Alcantara
    As a result of a setback in his recuperation from pelvic surgery, Thiago is still not able to perform.

    The Spaniard’s 31-minute cameo against West Ham United in April was his last appearance for Liverpool. He is anticipated to return in the upcoming year.

    Stefan Bajcetic
    Bajcetic is also not playing since he experienced a setback in his recuperation from an injury. His current issue is unrelated to the one that ended his historic campaign the previous year.

    But there’s no date of return for the young Spanish man.
