Liverpool told how much they'll have to pay for 'elite' star
Liverpool told how much they'll have to pay for 'elite' star If Arne Slot manages to keep his job as Liverpool's manager, he's going to have a lot of problems to solve in the summer. The Dutchman has been under fire for most of the 2025-26 season due to the way he's handled being the Reds' manager. Indeed, the fact that he won the Premier League last term will still be fresh in the memories of Fenway Sports Group but, if Liverpool get knocked out of the Champions League, it's hard to see why they'd keep him around.
However, history has shown that the Anfield outfit don't change managers all that often and, if FSG stick to their guns, Slot and Richard Hughes will have a lot of changes to make. Several players have already been linked with an Anfield switch and now, Liverpool have been told how much they'll need to fork out if they want to sign one of their main targets this summer. Elliot Anderson could end up costing Liverpool over £65 million One area of Liverpool's team that needs serious improvement is their midfield.
Although Slot has the most depth in this area, it's clear that there are still one or two things missing from the Reds' midfield. And, since Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister have both been linked with exits over the last couple of months, it's hardly surprising to see Nottingham Forest's Elliott Anderson on their shortlist . The young Englishman has been a revelation for Forest over the last couple of seasons with Thomas Tuchel highly likely to take him to the 2026 World Cup.
However, since Evangelos Marinakis is a notoriously tough negotiator, a deal won't come easy. But, as per an update from Christian Falk , it seems like the price that Forest are demanding isn't all that high. "He’s [Anderson] too expensive!
It’s said that he’ll cost €80m [£68. 9m], which is just too much money for Bayern Munich, and they don’t need a player in this position," he wrote. "It’s true that Leon Goretzka will leave the club this summer, but they’re not looking for a successor.
