Liverpool are ramping up plans for the upcoming transfer windows as the club gear up to strengthen Arne Slot’s squad and turn them into real contenders for the biggest trophies on offer.
The Merseyside giants sit second in the Premier League table despite an underwhelming summer transfer window where they failed to sign the number 6 they wanted.
Liverpool want to be more aggressive in the winter transfer window and have drawn up plans to bring in a new defensive midfielder in the middle of the season.
The club are also working on outgoings with suggestions that they could listen to offers for Dominik Szoboszlai and Luis Diaz, probably at the end of the season.
The Reds are also worried about the prospect of losing Mohamed Salah on a free transfer next summer and are scouting several players who could come in to replace the Egyptian superstar.
Liverpool look for solutions in Serie A
The Merseyside giants are looking at several players and Eintracht Frankfurt’s Omar Marmous has been tipped to be someone who could replace Salah.
However, Liverpool are also keeping tabs on potential in Serie A, where they plucked Salah from all those years back.
According to CaughtoffSide, the Reds are keeping close tabs on Juventus’ 19-year-old wide forward Kenan Yildiz.
The teenager is a massive prospect and Juventus hope that he will turn out to be a superstar for them in the coming years.
Can you name the team Liverpool signed these players from?
However, Premier League clubs are already hovering over him and Liverpool are keeping an eye on him amid concerns about losing Salah.
Arsenal are also interested in him and believes he could be a player who could ease the burden on Bukayo Saka if he joins the Gunners.
Will he leave Juventus?
Yildiz recently signed a new five-year contract until 2029 with Juventus and the club want to invest in him as their future.
The Serie A giants are a big name and have brought in an exciting young head coach Thiago Motta in the summer.
The winger is seen as the club’s future and it would not be easy to snare him away from Juventus, at least in the winter transfer window.
However, the Premier League clubs have the money to force the issue and Juventus would be ready to consider selling him if a big enough offer lands on their table.
