Fabrizio Romano gives encouraging update on Liverpool transfer

Liverpool fans have been disappointed with the transfer market this summer.

The Reds are the only team in Europe’s top five leagues not to have signed a single player during the transfer window.

They have been linked with a move for Newcastle United’s Anthony Gordon and Real Sociedad’s Martin Zubimendi this summer.

The latter turned down a move to Anfield, preferring to stay at the club where he spent his youth, a decision that took the Reds by surprise.

Arne Slot’s Liverpool started the Premier League season with a convincing 2-0 victory over Ipswich Town, thanks to goals from Diogo Jota and Mohamed Salah.

At the moment, Slots team are no closer to signing a player, but transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has some encouraging news about their transfer business.

“I think it’s still an open situation at Liverpool (for transfers). I wouldn’t rule out Liverpool entering the market. They keep repeating publicly and privately that they only invest in players if they are 100% convinced,” the journalist spoke in the podcast Here We Go.

“Otherwise they think they have a very good selection, full of talented players for the future.

“Liverpool are not desperate for players, but there is still movement in contact with agents and clubs.

“So Liverpool are still moving. If there are any opportunities in the last two weeks, I still expect Liverpool to do something in the market.”

Despite having a good squad, the Reds could still enter the market to sign new players.

Liverpool need to strengthen their defence and midfield

Their performances last season showed that they need a new and reliable central defender who can support Virgil van Dijk in defence.

Liverpool’s manager believes the team needs a new number 6 and has therefore targeted Zubimendi.

There are positions they can strengthen this summer and the squad needs to introduce new players, but with just 11 days left in the transfer window, they need to act quickly to bring in new players.
