Liverpool are not prepared to stand still after winning the Premier League this season, and work is underway to strengthen the squad this summer. The Reds are now eyeing a market opportunity to land a top young winger for a relatively small fee.
Arne Slot wants to add exciting young forwards to his squad in his quest to reconfigure the attack around veteran Mo Salah for the 2025/26 season.
Liverpool sporting director Richard Hughes and his recruitment team are working on several parallel deals and are scheduled for more talks with players’ representatives in the coming weeks.
However, Hughes now has a chance to make a move for a top young winger in France who could be available for a bargain price in the upcoming summer transfer window.

The Reds are eyeing a bargain deal from Ligue 1
Eliesse Ben Seghir is a talented young winger in France, and this is his first full season as a first-team player at Monaco.
He has played some part in 30 Ligue 1 games for Monaco this season, but he has largely been used as a substitute rather than a starting eleven player.
According to L’Equipe via GFFN, the player has been left frustrated by his lack of game time and is considering leaving Monaco in the summer.
Liverpool are among the clubs that are keeping tabs on him, and they could pounce to snare him away from Monaco in the upcoming transfer window.
He is seen as a talented young player who has a high ceiling, and Liverpool see it as an opportunity to sign a player who could be a superstar in the future.
The winger has a contract until 2027 with Monaco, but he could be sold if a club are prepared to offer somewhere around £25.5m in the summer.
