“Concrete bids” expected, Gordon talks & friendly cancelled? – Latest Liverpool FC News
Liverpool look to be edging towards their first transfer Business of the summer, while key news has emerged regarding Anthony Gordon and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
“Concrete bids” coming soon
The Reds are yet to make a signing under Arne Slot, but a fresh update suggests that that is about to change.
According to a report from the Independent‘s Miguel Delaney, “the next 10 days are likely to see the first concrete bids put in” by Liverpool.
He goes on to add that “the belief around the Liverpool camp is that transfer Business will finally accelerate next week.”
A centre-back, defensive midfielder and wide forward are all mentioned, but there could be “potentially two of the latter.”
Liverpool will not have just been idly watching the window pass them by, but with the season fast approaching it seems we will finally get to see new faces added to the squad.
