Here’s a round-up of the latest transfer news surrounding Liverpool.
Earlier this week we reported on Liverpool’s links to Jamal Musiala, Merih Demiral and the possible departures of three members of Jurgen Klopp’s squad.
Here’s more transfer news and gossip from the Reds camp.
Liverpool transfer – possible signings
Nicolo Barella
Liverpool are reportedly interested in Inter Milan play-maker Nicolo Barella, according to FCInterLive.
The midfielder has caught the eye of several suitors in Europe and the Reds are reportedly keen.
He has developed a great deal since his days at Cagliari, showing maturity, creativity and fearlessness in the heart of midfield.
However, Inter may offer Barella an improved contract to fend off any interest, according to Calciomercato.
Barella would be a welcome addition to Liverpool given doubts surrounding Georginio Wijnaldum’s future.

David Alaba
Italian journalist Romeo Agresti reports David Alaba has been offered a £9 million-a-year contract by Liverpool.
The versatile defender had been linked with a move to Real Madrid, according to fellow journalist Fabrizio Romano reported in the Guardian. However, he admitted the Reds were also looking to lure the Austrian to Anfield.
Agresti suggested on Twitch the Austrian’s deal would see him become one of Liverpool’s highest earners, only behind Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk, Roberto Firmino and ex-Bayern teammate Thiago Alcantara.

Jack Grealish
Jack Grealish attracting top Premier League clubs is no surprise. The Mirror previously noted Liverpool had entered the running to sign the Aston Villa midfielder, also a target for Manchester United.
What may seem astounding, though, is United legend Rio Ferdinand spurring the Reds on to rival the Red Devils. The pundit spoke on his YouTube channel, calling for the midfielder to leave.
The Old Trafford side have been heavily linked with Grealish, who has been seen as Paul Pogba’s successor. But with the Reds competing, it looks as though Grealish may have to pick between the two if he decides to leave Villa.

Patson Daka
Patson Daka has spoken of his admiration for Salah and Sadio Mane and been linked with a move to Liverpool, according to BBC Sport.
The striker has been in terrific form and has certainly stepped up for Salzburg since the departure of Erling Braut Haaland.
The Zambian has been involved in 20 goals from 17 appearances in all competitions this term. This comprises 15 goals and five assists.
He could certainly go on to have a career like his Liverpool heroes if he maintains his rich form. Given the Reds are on the radar, it may not be long.

Sven Botman
Liverpool have been linked with Lille centre-half Sven Botman this window but the Reds have all but denied any chance of them signing the defender this month, according to the Athletic.
Botman would certainly provide added defensive cover for Liverpool, who have struggled in the absence of Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip.
However, the report indicates Liverpool are unlikely to bid for the defender in the summer window either.

Liverpool transfer – potential shock exit
Mohamed Salah
Liverpool talisman Mohamed Salah is apparently feeling underappreciated and is eyeing a move to Real Madrid, according to Spanish outlet Bernabeu Digital.
The report follows an interview Salah gave with AS. In the interview, the Egyptian refused to rule out a move to Real Madrid or Barcelona.
Real Madrid have allegedly taken a step back from the reported interest, however, deciding Eden Hazard has what it takes.
