Liverpool manager Arne Slot appears to be pushing ahead with an aggressive rebuild, reportedly preparing a staggering £100 million bid for another Premier League star, shortly after wrapping up a deal for Florian Wirtz.
After a cautious debut transfer window, Slot is now spearheading a major squad transformation to gear up for the new season. His first signing, Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen, is viewed as a possible long-term successor to Trent Alexander-Arnold. Florian Wirtz’s record-breaking transfer is also imminent, underscoring Liverpool’s ambitious plans.
The club isn’t stopping there. Having just landed Milos Kerkez from Bournemouth, the Reds are targeting even more marquee additions.
Liverpool Reignite Interest in Anthony Gordon Amid Diaz Exit Rumors
Liverpool are reportedly revisiting their interest in Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon, according to The Sun, as doubts grow over Luis Diaz’s future at Anfield.
With Barcelona said to be monitoring Diaz, Liverpool had earlier considered PSG’s Bradley Barcola as a replacement. However, with PSG unwilling to sell following their Champions League success, the club has turned its focus back to Gordon.
The ex-Everton youth product has shined at Newcastle since his £45M move in January 2024, racking up 22 goals and 26 assists in 106 matches. Now 24, Gordon is a vital part of Eddie Howe’s side.
While Liverpool are financially capable of meeting Gordon’s price, securing the transfer may prove challenging, as Newcastle are reluctant to lose a key player. That said, if a deal does materialize, Newcastle are rumored to be eyeing Manchester City’s Jack Grealish as a possible high-profile loan replacement, especially after his underwhelming season under Pep Guardiola
