Liverpool handed alarming transfer update following Konate signing – report | OneFootball

Liverpool’s transfer activity in the current window could be severely limited, with it being reported that part of the player sales will go to funding the club’s earlier move for Ibrahima Konate.

This comes from Football Insider, with the publication suggesting that a late major signing this summer is far from likely as a consequence.

The Reds are thought to be hoping to amass over £60m in player sales, according to The Athletic, with a replacement for PSG midfielder Gini Wijnaldum, and a new forward, considered priorities.

As our rivals strengthen, we’d be taking a massive gamble on our first-choice squad avoiding injury; if the last campaign was anything to go by, this is far from being a likely prospect.
