Liverpool are gearing up for a busy summer transfer window as they prepare for the new season under Arne Slot.
After a couple of quiet transfer windows, FSG are now expected to back Slot, with several key signings lined up.
Liverpool have a deal agreed for Jeremie Frimpong to replace Trent Alexander-Arnold, who is set to join Real Madrid.
Reports also indicate progress on a move for Milos Kerkez to bolster the left-back spot, while Florian Wirtz remains a top target. Reports also suggest Liverpool are closing in on Milos Kerkez to address the left-back position, while Florian Wirtz also remains a key target.
Outgoings are expected too, with Luis Diaz linked to Barcelona and Harvey Elliott also attracting interest amid talk of a potential exit.
Liverpool open to selling Harvey Elliott amid interest from Newcastle
Eddie Howe’s side are among the clubs showing interest in signing the Liverpool star this summer, with recent reports suggesting that Newcastle are plotting a move for Elliott, who is valued at around £40m.
Arne Slot is reportedly open to selling Elliott, who has been described as ‘special‘ by Jurgen Klopp and there now appears to be an update on his situation.
According to Sky Sports reporter Florian Plettenberg, Liverpool will not stand in his way if a suitable offer comes in. He also reports that there have been several interesting enquiries coming in for him, with talks ongoing.
Taking to X, Plettenberg reported: “A departure of Harvey Elliott is possible. There are many interesting enquiries, and talks are ongoing. Liverpool would not stand in his way if a suitable offer comes in. His contract runs until 2027.”
Could Liverpool use Newcastle’s interest in Harvey Elliott to sign Alexander Isak
Liverpool’s interest in Alexander Isak is well documented, with the Reds keen on upgrading their attacking options.
Darwin Nunez is expected to be sold by Liverpool this summer, with the Uruguayan attracting interest from the Saudi Pro League.
Diogo Jota has also been linked with an exit. Signing a striker like Isak will be a massive statement of intent from the champions-elect as they hope to build on their success under Arne Slot.
However, signing him will not be easy. Not only are the Magpies interested in selling him, he is also going to cost them a lot of money.
With Newcastle interested in signing Caoimhin Kelleher as well as Harvey Elliott, the Reds could perhaps take their chance with a creative player(s)-plus-cash deal to sign the Premier League hitman.
