Liverpool are reportedly ready to bid €100 million for Barcelona’s Fermin Lopez and Andreas Christensen, according to Fichajes. Manager Arne Slot sees both players as key additions who can make an immediate impact in the Premier League.
The proposed deal includes €80 million for Fermin and €20 million for Christensen. Talks are already underway, and Liverpool are optimistic Barcelona will accept.
Fermin in Demand:
At 22, Fermin has impressed with his composure, versatility, and ability to perform under pressure. Despite coach Hansi Flick wanting to keep him, competition in midfield could limit his chances next season. Liverpool believe his style suits the Premier League well.
Christensen Seen as Ideal Defensive Addition:
Christensen has been solid for Barcelona, though fitness issues have affected his recent involvement. With his contract expiring in 2026 and no renewal in sight, Liverpool see him as a smart, experienced option to bolster their defense.
Barcelona’s Tough Decision:
Barcelona must decide whether to accept a lucrative offer that could help ease financial pressure but also weaken squad depth. The move could also support their pursuit of Luis Diaz, who is likely to play a more prominent role than Fermin or Christensen.
