Liverpool could be preparing for another major midfield investment, with reports suggesting that the Reds are among the leading contenders to secure the signature of a highly-rated Italian midfielder valued at around £65 million.
The Merseyside club are reportedly ahead of several European rivals in the race, although Juventus, Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal are also monitoring the situation.
With competition expected to intensify, Liverpool could face an important transfer battle as they look to strengthen their midfield options ahead of the next transfer window.
At the same time, Liverpool are reportedly exploring the possibility of signing another attacking midfielder from the Bundesliga, with the player being discussed as a potential alternative should Florian Wirtz’s situation at Anfield change.
This suggests the Reds could be considering more than one midfield option as Iraola and the recruitment team assess how to improve the squad.
The possibility of a major midfield reshuffle is already generating excitement among supporters, particularly with several big clubs reportedly competing for similar profiles.
However, Liverpool have not officially confirmed negotiations for the £65m Italian target or plans to replace Wirtz. Recent reporting indicates that the club still wants Wirtz to succeed at Anfield. Lente Desportiva +2
