Liverpool to make £77M offer – Klopp green light for Reds to seal deal – Liverpool pushing for Frenchman

Here is a roundup of the top Liverpool news and gossip from icfootballnews that we think you guys may have missed –

Liverpool are reportedly stepping up their efforts to sign Nice midfielder Khephren Thuram. according to journalist Rudy Galetti.

LIVERPOOL boss Jurgen Klopp knows that his current side are not good enough to compete with Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal and possibly Chelsea for that Premier League title next season.

He knows that he needs to add some more quality to the squad – some more depth and freshness – and that had les to rumours that the exciting Thuram is a man that the club are interested in.

The 22-year-old has enjoyed a breakout campaign in the south of France and earned a call-up to the senior national team as well as a place in the Ligue 1 Team of the Season.

Jurgen Klopp has already signed midfielder Alexis Mac Allister from Brighton and is on the verge of finalising a deal for another midfield star Leipzig’s Dominic Szoboszlai.

And according to Galetti – they will not push to sign the gifted Frenchman.

According to journalist Neil Jones, Thuram is the likeliest to arrive at Anfield.

He recently told CaughtOffside, Jones said: “The signing of Alexis Mac Allister may be done and dusted, but midfield remains a priority for Liverpool in this summer’s transfer market.

“Mac Allister is a significant signing to strengthen Jurgen Klopp’s options, but it’s never been a secret that the club ideally wanted two or even three new signings in that position.

“Obviously Khephren Thuram and Manu Kone have been mentioned. From my understanding, Thuram is the likeliest out of those – the profile of him, his physique, his age, and the club he’s playing at, the kind of money that would be involved – I think he perfectly fits the bill.

“It remains to be seen how willing Nice are to let him go, and I think the fact that there looks like a number of midfield players likely to move soon in this market means that Nice might just be waiting to see the how the dominos fall, and what kind of price they can get for him.

“Still, I think LIVERPOOL and Thuram, even if it hasn’t moved much in the last seven days and a fee hasn’t yet been agreed, he’s definitely been identified as someone Liverpool want.”

Chiesa green light – 

Jurgen Klopp has reportedly given the green light for LIVERPOOL to sign Federico Chiesa from Juventus this summer.

Jurgen Klopp is a man that knows he needs to spend some money this transfer window – he knows that he needs to add players to the side that will make a differnce – he knows he needs to close the gap on Manchester City.

the German boss will be backed by the board this summer – as shown by the arrival of Alexis Mac Allister – and is looking into the idea of signing Chiesa from Juventus.

Juventus missed out on Champions League football after another disappointing season off the pitch and recent Reports from Corriere dello Sport indicate Liverpool are very much interested in a deal.

Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport have claimed that Klopp has given the board the green light to sign Chiesa in a deal that would cost the club around £38 million

The 25-year-old is currently stuck in contract renewal talks but it appears a transfer away from Turin could be a real possibilty especially if a big Premier League club comes knocking.

The report states that Liverpool are willing to be serious about bringing Chiesa to Merseyside, and Discussions have already taken place with his agent Fali Ramadani as the Reds are prepared to guarantee him a wage increase.

Chiesa is a man that would offer LIVERPOOL something different in that attack – and for £38 million – it would not be too much of a risk.

There are plenty of areas of that squad that Klopp needs to work on and improve – so we are expecting it to be a busy summer. But despite the links with Cheisa – we are not sure that he is a player that the German boss really needs.

But he will still be welcomed by the fans –

Valverde offer – 

Liverpool are reportedly ready to offer Real Madrid £77 million in order to sign Federico Valverde

The summer window is officially open and that means LIVERPOOL will have ample opportunity to sign players that will help them close the gap on Manchester City next season.

Valverde has been tentatively linked with a move to Liverpool, among other clubs, as Los Blancos continue to strengthen their squad with new signings.

Jude Bellingham marks another high-profile midfield signing, following on from Aurelien Tchouameni’s arrival last year, adding increased competition for places. And that has led to some rumours that Valverde could be sold this summer.

With Bellingham on board at Santiago Bernabeu, there have been suggestions that Valverde may be allowed to move on as he faces added competition for places.

Liverpool are now reportedly preparing to submit a new proposal of around £77m according to Catalan outlet El Nacional

However – the reports adds that Madrid have no intention is letting the star leave.

The 24-year-old has recently admitted that he has no plans to leave Madrid – he told ESPN Argentina: “No, no… I’m in Madrid trying to enjoy every moment and leave my mark on the best club in the world.

‘I want to continue winning titles for the madridistas.”

Joe Cole claimed in the season that Valverde is just as new signing Bellingham: “He’s standing right at the top of the tree with Bellingham in the young players, and he’s on the verge of becoming the best,” he said on BT Sport (via the Daily Mail).

“He’s box-to-box, he scores goals, he’s a technician, he was the unsung hero in the final, I thought he was outstanding against Liverpool.”

The arrival of Bellingham to Madrid will mean that game time for Valverde will be harder to come by – but at the end of the day – the Englishman has to get used to playing for one of the biggest sides in the game – Valverde has already done it.

It will be interesting to see what happens if LIVERPOOL actually make another offer for the player
