Liverpool to make move for £60m defender as 'growing suspicion' shared
Liverpool to make move for £60m defender as 'growing suspicion' shared Arne Slot's time as Liverpool's manager could be coming to an end but that doesn't mean that the Anfield outfit haven't got several players on their transfer shortlist. It's clear that the Reds needs to add some serious upgrades to their ranks if they want to get back to being the Premier League's best team next season. Almost every area of their squad needs a new player or two but, with the futures of some of their first-team squad still unknown, it's hard for the club to choose who they want to sign and decide what their main priorities are.
There's obviously no knowing what will happen to the Anfield outfit this season or in the summer but, as long as they qualify for the Champions League they should be able to attract just about any player. That is, as long as they have the money to spend, of course. And, now that the transfer window is edging closer, rumours are starting to appear more frequently with some world class players emerging as potential targets.
Liverpool could target Alphonso Davies in the summer is one of Liverpool's highest profile players who's contract is set to run out at the end of the 2025-26 season. Although the Scotsman has been a dependable full-back during his time with the club, it's clear that Milos Kerkez was brought in to be the first-choice left-back . And, even though Robertson has often outperformed Kerkez this term, it doesn't feel like Liverpool will keep the Scotsman around due to his age and his weekly wage.
This means that the Anfield outfit will be a left-back down and, even though Kostas Tsimikas will be returning from loan, he's not good enough for Liverpool anymore. With this in mind, it's not hard to understand why several left-backs have now been linked with a Liverpool move. And, as per an update from Christian Falk , Alphonso Davies seems to be a new name on the Reds' shortlist.
"It’s a very interesting rumour suggesting Alphonso Davies was offered to Liverpool by intermediaries," he wrote. "It’s true that there are thoughts within Bayern, as the Canadian has picked up yet another injury, that if a big offer is on the table, perhaps they would sell him. "Before, it was clear that FC Bayern need this player; he’s one of the best in the team.
