Liverpool made a "blockbuster" Florian Wirtz from Leverkusen. |
Early on June 21, "The Kop" completed the announcement of midfielder Florian Wirtz for a fee of 116 million pounds from Leverkusen. In addition, the Anfield team also reached an agreement to recruit defender Milos Kerkez from Bournemouth for a price of 40 million pounds.
Kerkez is only 21 but is a promising defender in the Premier League. He was a mainstay for Bournemouth last season and helped the team concede five more goals than Liverpool in 2024/25.
In addition to the aforementioned duo, Liverpool also quickly completed the signing of full-back Jeremie Frimpong from Leverkusen and goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili from Valencia, helping to push the total transfer fee spent this summer to more than £200 million. Coach Arne Slot's team is showing their determination to defend the Premier League throne and go further in the Champions League.
But Liverpool have no intention of stopping in the transfer market. The team is targeting Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi, if the team is willing to sell for a reasonable fee. The England international's contract with Palace has only 1 year left.
Guehi is considered to be the perfect replacement for Jarell Quansah, who is likely to move to Leverkusen. Guehi is also expected to compete with Ibrahima Konate for a position to partner Virgil van Dijk.
Konate currently has only 1 year left on his contract with Liverpool. He has attracted the attention of PSG and Bayern Munich. Konate has rejected the terms of a new contract because he wants a higher salary.
In addition, Liverpool can also sell Darwin Nunez, a striker who has received much attention in Serie A. "The Kop" values Nunez at up to 70 million pounds.
