The most recent rumors and stories regarding transfers involving Liverpool, including updates on Arne Slot’s pursuit of a replacement for Mohamed Salah and the future of Virgil van Dijk
There aren’t many days left for Liverpool to practice before they get back into action. On Friday night, the Reds and Real Betis will play at Pittsburgh’s Acrisure Stadium, where Arne Slot will make his head coaching debut.
Even if the team has already left for the United States to intensify preseason training, Liverpool is still strongly linked to a number of elite players. Trent Alexander-Arnold, Mohamed Salah, and Virgil van Dijk, meanwhile, have increasingly hazy futures at Anfield.
The three have just reached the final year of their contracts, so rival teams will be able to sign them for free the next year. Having stated that, hotsportszone has compiled the most recent rumors and reports on transfers for Tuesday night.
Liverpool player divulges information on Salah
Mohamed Salah, 32, may depart Anfield this summer, according to Wataru Endo, who stated that Liverpool is searching for a replacement for the winger. The Reds midfielder fielded a barrage of questions regarding his personal life and career while speaking with Japanese publication ABEMA Sports Time.
Next, Endo was asked which player from the national team he would like to sign for Liverpool. He named Takefusa Kubo from Real Sociedad after much consideration, which caused a stir in the studio.
Endo went on: “Mohamed Salah’s replacement is currently being sought after, so Liverpool is really bolstering this area. I believe Kubo is a player that might step in for him on the national team.”
HITC claims that Virgil van Dijk has informed Liverpool’s executives that he is interested in signing a new deal. The 33-year-old defender’s current Merseyside contract expires in June 2025. He has recently been linked to a move to the Saudi Pro League.
The Reds will now try to get Van Dijk to sign an extension before the season ends, according to the report. This is a significant plus for Arne Slot, who HITC claims has told the club he wants to keep the international player from the Netherlands.
Since moving to Liverpool from Southampton in January 2018, Van Dijk has made 270 appearances for the club, winning two Carabao Cups, the FA Cup, the FIFA Club World Cup, the UEFA Super Cup, the Premier League, and the Champions League.
