🚨 𝐄𝐗𝐂𝐋𝐔𝐒𝐈𝐕𝐄: Atlético Madrid top target at LB is Andy Robertson, their ideal candidate 🔴⚪️

Not an easy deal at Liverpool rate him highly even with 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐨𝐬 𝐊𝐞𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐳 𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐣𝐨𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐛 𝐬𝐨𝐨𝐧 at left back.

Atléti have Robertson higher than Theo Hernández on their shortlist at LB so far, but deal depends on price.

Adrien Truffert has signed five year deal at Bournemouth. Details: €13.5m fixed fee, €3.5m add-ons, 10% sell-on clause to Rennes.

Medical completed, presentation next week and here we go, confirmed.

⏳🏁 Kerkez will become Liverpool player soon, as reported.
 
There could soon be a big transfer decision to be made by Liverpool and one of their regular starters from last season after Fabrizio Romano revealed the player in question has become a ‘top target’ elsewhere.

The Premier League champions are sending a statement of intent in the summer transfer window, signing Jeremie Frimpong and agreeing a British record-breaking deal for Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen. In addition, they are closing in on the signing of Milos Kerkez from Bournemouth – all less than a month since they lifted the Premier League trophy.

Liverpool have ambitions to strengthen their title-conquering squad even further, but may have to make some sacrifices too, so it’s bound to be an interesting couple of months with regards to who could leave.

The latest news from Fabrizio Romano is that one potential casualty of Liverpool’s signing spree is now unexpectedly on the shortlist of a European giant.

With Kerkez ever closer to becoming Liverpool’s new left-back, Andy Robertson is the existing member of Arne Slot’s squad whose future is now in doubt.

Robertson has one year left on his contract at Anfield, where he remains one of Liverpool’s highest earners. He started 38 times in all competitions last season, but isn’t guaranteed to still be at Liverpool next season.

That’s because Romano has revealed that Robertson is Atletico Madrid’s ‘top target’ for the left-back position.

Atleti have been tipped to re-sign their former academy product Theo Hernandez from AC Milan recently, but Romano explains that Robertson is actually above the France international on the shortlist.

There are no details yet of how much Diego Simeone’s side would be willing to bid for Robertson, but Atleti’s admiration of him is now out in the open.

Mutually, Robertson is ‘keen’ on the move to Atleti after initial talks began, Romano has updated.
 
Liverpool stance on Robertson future

While Robertson was Slot’s go-to man at left-back in 2024-25, things could be about to change when Kerkez arrives.

Many pundits believe Robertson’s form has declined over the past 12 months and that the signing of a successor like Kerkez – who has two seasons of Premier League experience under his belt – is a necessity.

But Romano explains that Liverpool still rate Robertson ‘highly’ even amidst their desire to sign Kerkez.
Romano wrote on X: “EXCLUSIVE: Atlético Madrid top target at left back is Andy Robertson, appreciated internally as ideal candidate.

“Not an easy deal at Liverpool rate him highly even with Kerkez due to join the club soon.
“Atléti have Robertson higher than Theo on their shortlist at LB so far.”
Therefore, it’s no given that they’ll let the Scotland international go. No asking price has yet been established for the 31-year-old, so there are some reflections to be made on Merseyside.

Debates about Robertson’s future are no obstacle to the addition of Kerkez, though, with Romano adding that ‘it’s just a matter of time and technical steps’ before that deal is concluded.

The reporter also shared that Kerkez is ‘not listening to any other call or approach’, with his heart set on joining Liverpool.

There has been contact between the Reds and Bournemouth, with Romano confirming earlier this week that Kerkez will be the next new signing to join Liverpool, before Wirtz – who won’t complete a medical until later next week after he ends his holiday.
 
according to the Daily Mail, the Reds are accelerating plans to bring in three more signings this summer, with Milos Kerkez next up and poised to finalise a move of around £43m from Bournemouth. His signing could even be tied up before the official announcement for Wirtz.

In addition, the Mail claims Slot, alongside sporting director Richard Hughes, next wants to bring in both a striker and a new central defender, though claims they must ‘balance the books’ first by sanctioning a number of departures first.

To that end, the likes of Darwin Nunez, Jarell Quansah, Harvey Elliott and potentially Joe Gomez among those likely to leave and in an effort to raise an additional £150m in sales.

Journalist David Ornstein has previously revealed that the sale of Ibou Konate cannot be ruled out if the defender does not agree to a new deal and he prepares to enter the final 12 months of his Anfield contract.

And while the article declines to name either player the Reds will target, Bild journalist Christian Falk has identified Liverpool as one of two Premier League sides considering a big-money move for a classy Bayern Munich operator.
 
Robertson muda wake wa kucheza kwenye top level umeisha, Ni muda wa Slot sasa ku sign his own players .Ni muda wa kuingiza sura mpya za vijana wenye hungry
Muda wa ku perform high level week in week out umepungua kilichobaki ni kuwa gloom vijana wetu chipukizi angalau kwa msimu mmoja angetufaa. Baada ya kusoma wakala wake anashiriki hayo mazungumzo imenistua kiasi ngoja tuone yajayo ndugu.
Dirisha kwa tetesi tunakwenda vizuri na muda bado upo kuweka mambo sawa

Happy 33rd birthday, Mohamed Salah. 🥳

He's the highest scoring overseas player in PL history and the player with the most goal involvements in a 38-game PL season (47).

He's the only player to win the PL Player of the Season, the PL Golden Boot and the PL Playmaker award in the same campaign and he won the title.

He's won the joint-most PL Golden Boot awards alongside Thierry Henry (4) and the joint-most PL Player of the Month awards alongside Harry Kane and Sergio Aguero (7).

He's the first player in Liverpool’s history to score 20+ goals across all competitions in EIGHT consecutive seasons and the first player in Premier League history to score or assist in 10+ consecutive games THREE TIMES.

He's the first player in Premier League history to register 40+ goal involvements in TWO different seasons and holds the record for the most goal involvements away from home in a single Premier League season (27).

He also has the most Champions League goals by an African player in the competition's history and is Liverpool's third highest goalscorer in the club's history after Ian Rush and Roger Hunt.

The Egyptian King and one of the greatest players to ever set foot in the Premier League. 👑
