Liverpool have entered the race to sign one of the most talked-about young wingers of the summer, with fresh reports revealing that the club has held talks in an attempt to hijack a £52 million transfer — just as one of their Premier League rivals seemed to have sealed the deal.
According to insiders, the Premier League champions have initiated discussions with the 20-year-old’s representatives, signaling serious intent. While no formal offer has been tabled just yet, the talks are described as “genuine” and “accelerating.”
The unnamed winger, who has been a breakout star in his league, was believed to be on the verge of joining another English club. However, Liverpool’s late intervention has thrown the deal into uncertainty, as the player is reportedly intrigued by the opportunity to join the Anfield project under Arne Slot.
“It’s not over yet,” one source close to the negotiation said. “Liverpool’s interest has definitely changed the landscape.”
With the Reds already investing heavily this summer in elite young talent, this move would only further underline their long-term strategy of securing the brightest rising stars before they explode on the global stage.
Who is the £52M star? Fans are now left guessing as speculation swirls around names like Crysencio Summerville, Nico Williams, or even Malick Fofana, all of whom have been on Liverpool’s radar.
Stay tuned this could be the next twist in an already explosive transfer window.
