Liverpool have big plans for the transfer window, but the club are keen to take up market opportunities to sign players on free transfers. However, one such deal is under threat as Manchester United are set to hijack the Reds’ pursuit of a top star this summer.
Arne Slot delivered the Premier League title in his first season, and the club are now ready to back his vision for the squad in the summer transfer window.
The Liverpool manager wants a substantial revamp of the squad, and sporting director Richard Hughes has been working on several deals ahead of the end of the season.
However, the Reds are now facing the threat of losing out on a top target to Manchester United, who are pushing to sign a top player on a free transfer in the coming weeks.

Manchester United push to sign a top Arne Slot target
Jonathan Tah has been on Liverpool’s radar for over a year, and the defender will be available on a free transfer at the end of the season.
The Merseyside giants are interested in taking him to Anfield this summer, but Manchester United have barged into the race to sign the centre-back.
According to CaughtOffSide, Manchester United have moved to try and convince the centre-back to move to Old Trafford this summer.
Talks have already taken place between Manchester United and his representatives over a potential transfer in the upcoming transfer window.
Manchester United see this as a great opportunity to sign an experienced centre-back without spending big on a transfer fee.
Tah has suitors in other top European leagues as well, but he is seriously considering moving to the Premier League this season.
However, the centre-back has not decided yet, and he will continue to study the offers on his table in the coming weeks and months.
