$76 million stars talk to Alisson about joining Liverpool

We are just one week away from the closure of the transfer window, and Liverpool can do more business after the exciting summer spending.

Alexander Isak, anyone? It’s a dream to be sure, but Newcastle United has taken the hard ball to the next level, and he will stop the Swedish striker from leaving even after he’s done his best to complete the move.

Liverpool also needs another striker, even after welcoming Hugo Ekitike and Florian Wirtz to win the game, but Arne Slot’s costume event will delight his costume event after winning the Premier League with such a confident way last year.

A deal for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi is also still in the pipeline, but Liverpool can also uninstall one or two first teams by the end of the month.

Who can still leave Liverpool

Harvey Elliott is expected to leave Liverpool in the 2024/25 campaign, but he remains part of the Slot first-team first team.

However, RB Leipzig and Tottenham Hotspur are interested in completing the deal. The loan approach of young marginal players Kaide Gordon and James McConnell was also considered. Lewis Koumas joined Birmingham City earlier this week.

Kostas tsimikas are also planning to export. After all, Liverpool currently has three left-backs. The Greek defender signed Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez in a £40m deal in June, an understandable demand, and Andy Robertson is willing to fight for his position in the coming year.

Kerkez left a lot of stuff on his first Premier League outing at the PFA Awards earlier this week, but he walked on the Giants with Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk, Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch.

But while the 21-year-old may be a bit enthusiastic in the challenge, he has played a lot of potential in the top flight last semester, surpassing Liverpool’s Robertson.

Liverpool has sold Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz to the top of the field, and they need a new striker, and if Isak does prove to have a signature beyond the FSG range, Liverpool has found an alternative that can help Kerkez grow up on Merseyside’s skin.

Liverpool strengthens bid for new striker

Real Madrid winger Rodrygo held talks with Brazilian teammate Alisson as he weighed his options before the transfer deadline, according to football insiders.

Rodrygo, 24, is considered one of the best wingers in the world, but his favor for Santiago Bernabeu, who will not be willing to sell 90 million euros (equal to £7.6 million) characters.

However, Manchester City also showed a vested interest in multi-purpose talent and could have a lead as Liverpool’s priorities remain in Isak until Newcastle explicitly informed him that he was not leaving.

Why Liverpool Want Rodrigo

Rodrygo has been considered one of Liverpool’s contemporary stakes so far as he has worked with Real Madrid since 18, while the Spanish Giants often sting around Jurgen Klopp.

In his six years at Real Madrid, Rodrygo scored 68 goals and provided 51 assists, winning two Champions League titles and three championships.

Rodrygo isn’t the strongest striker, nor is he prolific as a guy like Salah, or Vinicius Junior and Kylian Mbappe at Real Madrid.

But he is still an all-around star, giving pace, skills and wisdom that can add several dimensions to the slot machine. He brought that quality to Anfield’s table, which he might be the dream of combining the left wing with Kerkez.

Rodrygo doesn’t always find homes on his preferred left wing in Real Madrid, and although he sometimes cheated on him last year, he scored six goals on the left wing team in 2024/25 and provided six assists in just 12 games, compared to 13 goals in 31 games on the right.

Rodrygo’s strongest attributes are not only prolific when used correctly, but he is also clear and progressive, while data-driven platform FBREF reveals that he ranks in the top 2% of the European Five passes in the top 2% of the full leagues, while the top five in every 90 progresses.

An analyst in Madrid said it was “jewelry in the crown”, and the short Brazilian is different from Gakpo, who is more economical on the ball and focuses more on as a direct shooting threat.

Instead, Rodrygo’s action and link performance puts himself in a wider range of responsibilities, which ensures Kerkez’s stride in Liverpool shirts this season.

The young Hungarian certainly has the technical and athleticism that flourishes at Liverpool (he proved his worth in the Premier League, didn’t he?

Kerkez is a dynamic and dynamic force and allows the burners to overlap before Rodrygo and expands Liverpool’s offensive choices. This, in turn, allowed the Brazilian to curve inward and strike, which proved to be so effective when deployed on their favorite flanks.
