Liverpool ruled out of transfer race for Richard Hughes favourite

Liverpool ruled out of transfer race for Richard Hughes favourite Liverpool will need to make a lot of signings this summer if they want to get back to their best. Even though the Reds' team is mainly based around the one that won the Premier League last term, it's clear that some of Arne Slot 's men are now past their best. Mohamed Salah is one of them and, since he only had a year left on his current deal, Liverpool have agreed to allow him to exit for nothing this summer.

Others such as Alexis Mac Allister have also been slammed for their performances but, in reality, almost every area of Slot's first-team squad needs a new player or two added to it. So, the fact that yet another one of the Reds' targets could now be off the cards is a tad concerning. Marcos Senesi is 99.

This fee is exactly why Liverpool were interested in him with other Premier League clubs also interested in acquiring his services.

And, even though it felt like the Anfield outfit were the ones leading the way for his transfer, a new update from Ben Jacobs has shut those talks down completely. "We’ve seen some reports that Liverpool are going to enter the race [for Senesi]," he said on The United Stand Podcast . "They certainly have discussed, but there’s no formal contact between Liverpool and Senesi yet.
