Liverpool told asking price for 'leader' as Premier League rivals step up transfer chase Liverpool have faced a lot of problems this season. The Anfield outfit haven't been their usual selves with 11 of their Premier League games ending in defeat. Fortunately for Arne Slot and co, the rest of England's top flight haven't been at their best either which means that they're still in contention for a Champions League spot.

They're currently sitting in fourth place, six points behind Manchester United and, with just three games to go, it's unclear whether they'll have what it takes to stay there, especially since Aston Villa are in fifth and are level on points with them. With this in mind, it's clear to understand why so many players are being linked with an Anfield switch this summer with the asking price for one of their targets now being revealed. Liverpool would have to fork out £34.

5 million to sign Pierre Kalulu from Juventus Liverpool's defence is one of the main areas that needs some new players to be added to it this season. This term, the Anfield outfit have been forced to start Ibrahima Konate and Virgil van Dijk as their centre-backs in almost every game with the duo taking a lot of flak for their performances. Several fans have demanded that Konate gets dropped with some even saying that his performances this season have been his worst-ever.

So, when all of this is taken into account, it's hardly surprising to see that several new defenders are being linked with Liverpool this summer. And, as per a fresh report from Caught Offside , Pierre Kalulu is seemingly available for a decent price. "I feel I should also share some information, however, from sources who’ve done a lot of work in and around the agents industry," they wrote.
