Fabrizio Romano confirms club ready to agree MEGA deal with Liverpool
Fabrizio Romano confirms that one club is now ready to strike an incredible deal with Liverpool. The Reds must be on the same page, though.
Liverpool are involved in some massive deals right now. The biggest, of course, is for Florian Wirtz.

The Reds are expected to find common ground with Bayer Leverkusen and complete a club-record deal for the German. That deal will actually shatter the English transfer record, too.
But Liverpool won't stop there. They've already struck a deal for Jeremie Frimpong (made easier by a release clause).
Milos Kerkez could soon follow, too, while there are exits to think about. After all, Liverpool can only fund this if they send some big names away from Anfield.
Darwin Nunez is on that list and widely expected to leave. Caoimhin Kelleher should have his own move confirmed shortly.
And then there's Luis Diaz. Liverpool have a lot to think about there.
Luis Diaz is wanted
Al-Nassr want to sign Luis Diaz this summer. The Saudi Pro League team have the Colombian sitting at the top of their shortlist.

That's been confirmed by Fabrizio Romano. Speaking on his YouTube channel, Romano says Al-Nassr are set on Diaz and believe a deal can be struck.
"Luis Diaz is a top target for Al-Nassr," explains Romano. "He's a player they love, a player they want, and they feel he can leave Liverpool.
"So Al-Nassr will be there for Luis Diaz. They really want the player."
Romano then goes on to explain that Barcelona also hope to sign Diaz, but it's a bit more complicated there. The finances involved will make this a massive deal and the Saudi side are in a better position to make that happen.
He says Barcelona won't pay 'crazy money' for Diaz. Al-Nassr, however, may be able to do just that and convince Liverpool to let go of an important player.

Liverpool now have GOLDEN chance to sign Victor Osimhen
As we exclusively revealed Victor Osimhen is well-liked by Liverpool and he is an option to replace Nunez. Michael Edwards and his recruitment team have been admirers in the Nigerian forward for a long time. However, it seemed like Osimhen had agreed to join Al Hilal for a long time. It seemed like he was destined to join the Saudi side until Fabrizio Romano said that the deal was off on Thursday night. Advertisement Romano claimed that Osimhen could not strike an agreement with Al Hilal and that Galatasaray have not entered the race to sign the 26-year-old. But this should be music for the ears of Liverpool as well. This gives the Reds a golden chance to make a swoop for Osimhen yet again. Liverpool want a no.9. They have liked Osimhen for many years. Anfield Watch understands they were there for him when he went to Napoli but the Italian club did everything to prevent him from joining the Reds. The club's recruitment team likes him as well. He'd be a perfect fit, with his ability to press out of possession and also finish in front of goal. Advertisement One of the most prolific forwards in European football for the last few years, Osimhen is at the prime of his powers. Liverpool would be smart to make a move for him. Galatasaray might be an appealing destination but surely Osimhen has ambitions of playing in the Premier League. Yes, he might not be able to earn as much as he would have done at Al Hilal but Liverpool could surely compete with the wages on offer at the Turkish club.

Florian Wirtz to Liverpool is a 'Done Deal' with Medical to Take Place Next Week Liverpool Transfers: Florian Wirtz 'Considered a Done Deal' with Medical Already Arranged Liverpool fans can start to relax as they close in on the record-breaking signing of Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen. Negotiations have been taking place over the last couple of weeks to get the deal over the line and it finally looks like that might be the case. Advertisement With the transfer fee expected to be around the £126million mark, Wirtz will become the most expensive German player in history. The deal could also surpass the Premier League record with Moises Caicedo's switch to Chelsea for around £115million. Bild reporter Axel Hesse, as quoted by Anfield Sector on X, said: 'BREAKING: Florian Wirtz to Liverpool is considered a done deal!' 'Negotiations are nearing completion, it seems possible Wirtz will complete his medical early next week.' Anfield Sector have also quoted a report from Sacha Tavolieri, who first reported Wirtz's move to Liverpool, saying: 'Florian Wirtz has received green light from Bayer Leverkusen to complete his move to Liverpool Football Club next week. Clubs agreed on an amount around €150M.' Wirtz will now feature for Germany on Sunday, as they face France in the third-placed playoff game in the Nations League. Liverpool fans will be praying for injuries in that one so that this deal can get wrapped up as soon as possible.

Federico Chiesa insists he is at happy at Liverpool despite frustrating season
Federico Chiesa insists he would be happy to stay at Liverpool despite a frustrating first season at the club. The Italian forward moved to Merseyside from Juventus in a £10million deal last summer but found first-team opportunities limited. He scored two goals in 14 appearances and made just one Premier League start in the penultimate game of the season, when the title was already won. Advertisement Chiesa, 27, was used as the sixth-choice attacking option by Liverpool head coach Arne Slot, with the club planning to bolster their forward line this summer. Despite that, Chiesa believes there will be an opportunity for him to impress next season. In an interview with Corriere dello Sport he said: 'The year is over. But it's an experience I would do again. Soon I will sit down at the table with the club, Fali (Ramadani, his agent) and my family to find the best solution. I wouldn't mind staying in Liverpool at all.' Chiesa admits he experienced 'many difficulties' when he first arrived at Anfield, including injury issues that restricted his availability shortly after joining. In the interview, he referenced the difficulty of trying to dislodge the Premier league's top goalscorer, Mohamed Salah, and break into a side in top form. 'In the autumn Liverpool were going three times as fast as the others, an incredible intensity,' he said. 'At the beginning I felt the frustration… The desire to play was there, I put it aside, I understood the situation.' Chiesa added that Slot has always been respectful and played down suggestions that a move to Napoli — or any other Italian club — is close, despite reports linking him with a return to Serie A. 'I read that they placed me everywhere, but I had no direct contact with anyone,' he said. Liverpool have already signed Jeremie Frimpong and are in discussions to bring in Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen. (Robbie Jay Barratt – AMA/Getty Images)
