Speculations persist regarding potential summer signings for Liverpool as they prepare for Arne Slot’s debut season as head coach.
With the Jurgen Klopp era concluded, focus shifts towards the upcoming Premier League season starting in August.
During this interim period, Liverpool are expected to be linked with various players who could bolster their squad at Anfield. Yet, amidst the speculation, some reports may lack substance, while others might hold grains of truth.
Italian news outlet Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Liverpool and Juventus are both interested in acquiring Atalanta midfielder Teun Koopmeiners. There is a possibility of either club making a move to sign him this summer.
Koopmeiners is expected to represent the Netherlands at Euro 2024, implying that any potential transfer might occur after the conclusion of the tournament.
Liverpool would need to offer €60 million (£51 million) to Atalanta to secure Koopmeiners’ transfer.
Liverpool’s pursuit of players extends to Sporting Lisbon defender Goncalo Inacio.
According to A Bola, Liverpool and Manchester United are vying for Inacio’s signature.
Sporting are adamant about receiving the €60 million (£51 million) release clause fee for his departure.
The report suggests that Liverpool may have an advantage over Manchester United in signing Inacio due to uncertainties surrounding Erik ten Hag’s future as manager at Old Trafford.
