In a move that’s shocked fans and pundits alike, a Liverpool hero is reportedly nearing a stunning exit after agreeing terms with Serie A side Napoli. With manager Arne Slot overseeing a major squad reshuffle, the deal could mark one of the most emotional departures of the summer.
Liverpool are ready to start their squad reshuffle in earnest following the imminent arrival of Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen in the coming days.
The Reds are keen to start moving on a few players soon as they need the funds, the squad space and a clear wage bill to bring in more new arrivals in the coming weeks.
Liverpool have already identified several players they are ready to sell, and one of these stars has said yes to a move to Italy in the ongoing transfer window.
