🚨 Still cash left after Wirtz? LFC reportedly seal next deal

🚨 Still cash left after Wirtz? LFC reportedly seal next deal

Yahoo3 hours ago

Despite the substantial investment in Florian Wirtz, which is said to cost Liverpool around 150 million euros, it appears that Liverpool is still not satisfied.
After 'Sky' reporter Florian Plettenberg initially spoke of a "Done Deal" today, Fabrizio Romano has now followed suit and given his "Here we go" for the transfer of Milos Kerkez.
The 21-year-old caught the eye in the past Premier League season with AFC Bournemouth. So much so that, according to reports, Liverpool is said to be willing to pay up to 47 million euros for the left-back – who could potentially succeed Andrew Robertson in the long term.

Report – Inter Milan Inquire About £40M Rated Man United & England Star

Inter Milan have reportedly inquired about the availability of out-of-favour Man United striker Marcus Rashford. This according to UK outlet Manchester Evening News. They report, however, that any deal would have to be on loan, and that the Englishman's wages could pose a problem. Advertisement Inter Milan have been in talks with Manchester United in recent weeks. Initially, the Nerazzurri had shown an interest in signing Red Devils striker Joshua Zirkzee. However, they then turned their attention to another former Serie A forward, Rasmus Hojlund. By all accounts, Hojlund is a top target for the Nerazzurri in attack this summer. However, reports Manchester Evening News, there's yet another United striker who Inter have also sounded out a move for.

(Photo by) According to Manchester Evening News, the Nerazzurri asked United about the availability of Marcus Rashford this summer. Advertisement There is certainly little doubt that the Europa League finalists will aim to offload the 27-year-old this summer. Rashford had spent the second half of last season on loan with Aston Villa. And he is still not in the plans of Manchester United coach Ruben Amorim. Manchester Evening News report that United are resigned to the fact that they'll likely have to loan Rashford out this summer, rather than selling him outright. The outlet anticipate that the Red Devils value Rashford at around £40 million. Inter have sounded out whether there would be scope for a loan deal in their talks with United. One issue for the Nerazzurri would be Rashford's wages, however. The England international earns £325,000 net per week at Old Trafford.

Arne Slot blown away by Liverpool player who has 'met all expectations' - 'not seen by many'

Arne Slot pays tribute to "perfect goalkeeper" Alisson Becker in a brand new documentary profiling Liverpool's No.1. In a three-part series called 'Alisson: My Story' Slot heaps praise on the ability of the Brazil international, saying he has the ideal skill set for a modern goalkeeper to thrive at the elite level. Advertisement The LFC Original docuseries premieres on Friday at midday before episodes two and three arrive on official club channels on June 23 and 26, respectively and Slot is fulsome in his credit, saying: 'He meets almost all expectations you want from the perfect goalkeeper.

Advertisement 'He's relaxed, so he has no stress at all, where sometimes you see goalkeepers that are comfortable with the ball – good in the execution – are having a little bit of stress when the ball comes to them. But it seems as if he has no stress at all! 'Then of course because he is so tall, in crosses he can come for every single cross. That is really helpful for every defence. And shot-stopping is maybe his best asset he has. "It's very hard to score a goal against him from outside the box, it's almost impossible. And inside the box you have to be really precise if you want to score a goal against him.' Slot adds: 'I think that role [in the Premier League title win] is clear for everyone who watched all our games – in the moments we needed him, he was there for us. Advertisement 'But what is not known for everyone is his influence in the group. He is not the loudest but every time he speaks, everyone is listening. "Before the game he is not the one who speaks most but he's always there to bring messages to the players, and I think this is what's not being seen by many: that he is one of the leaders of our group. 'Not by being vocal a lot but by being the person that he is. So, I think everybody feels comfortable with him, because he's such a good human being. But he's also a leader in terms of motivating the group, whenever he thinks that's necessary.'

Report: Robertson Exit Progresses Amid Transfer Flurry

Liverpool's Summer Shake-Up: Robertson Says Yes to Atletico Amid Record Moves Robertson Exit Edges Closer as Wirtz Arrival Nears Liverpool's 2025 summer transfer window is turning into one of the most eventful in recent memory. While the headlines are rightly dominated by the anticipated arrival of Florian Wirtz – expected to become the club's record signing – it's the news on Andy Robertson that's sparked a stir amongst Reds supporters. Advertisement According to Sport, the Scottish full-back has given Atletico Madrid the green light to press on with a move. It's a statement that signals the beginning of the end of an era for one of Jurgen Klopp's most iconic signings. Although Robertson's potential departure has come as a surprise the timing may actually make sense from a strategic point of view. With only one year remaining on his contract and Milos Kerkez set to arrive, Robertson's role in Arne Slot's setup could be significantly reduced. Photo IMAGO Smart Sales Fuel Record Spending This is not just a summer of arrivals; it's one of calculated departures. Trent Alexander-Arnold and Caoimhin Kelleher have already been sold, and now Robertson may follow. While losing such a trio in one window might feel drastic, it's part of Liverpool's broader recalibration – trimming ageing or unsettled assets to fund an ambitious rebuild. Slot Era Taking Shape The surprise sale of Robertson, if completed, will not be a sentimental decision – it will be a statement. The Slot era is clearly not beholden to past glories. Frimpong, Pecsi, Wirtz and Kerkez mark the start of a more flexible, technical and modern Liverpool. Advertisement As the window unfolds, it's becoming clearer that this is not just a refresh – it's a redefinition. Our View – Anfield Index Analysis For many Liverpool fans, the idea of Andy Robertson in anything other than red feels borderline sacrilegious. This is a player who defined Klopp's heavy metal football – tireless runs, crunching tackles, and big-game consistency. But football waits for no one. From a supporter's lens, this deal is bittersweet. If Robertson does join Atletico, he'll be doing so with our best wishes – he deserves to test himself in another top European league. But it stings, especially when you consider the timing: just as we're preparing to welcome young talents like Kerkez, Frimpong and Wirtz. Advertisement That said, the trust in Arne Slot and the sporting structure should not be underestimated. If this summer is about laying the groundwork for the next great Liverpool side, then difficult decisions are part of the job. Losing Trent and Robbo in the same window is seismic emotionally – but possibly essential tactically. And let's be honest – if Liverpool are securing €100m players and building a youthful, high-ceiling side, then selling smart is non-negotiable. Just as fans learned to love the likes of Robertson and Wijnaldum after initial scepticism, there's room to fall for this next crop too. Still, seeing Robbo in red and white instead of just red? That'll take time to get used to.
