Liverpool has now agreed to a deal with Mohamed Sarah to stay with the club until 2027, so they are currently focusing on the summer transfer business.
The Reds are pleased to confirm Sarah’s new contract today, which saved the club and fans the future of the star player.
Virgil Van Dijk then signed a new contract in Liverpool, and already reached an agreement between the two political parties.
The focus will shift towards strengthening the team in the summer and adding quality to all positions.
According to Gazzetta Dello Sport, as broadcast by Sport Witness, Arne Slot’s side is leading the race to sign Inter Milan midfielder Nicolo Barrera.
While Barrera’s dynamic performance this season has sparked interest from top European clubs, it appears that Liverpool has taken an initiative to pursue Italian international.
Inter Milan has set a rating of over £80 million on Barrera, reflecting his importance to the team and consistent performance at the highest level.
Despite the hefty price tag, Liverpool’s aggressive approach suggests a strong desire to strengthen midfield options with Barrera’s caliber players.
Liverpool must pay insurance to sign Barrera
The deal could cost the Premier League leaders around £87 million, and if that happens, it will break their transfer records.
The Merseyside Club wanted a new midfielder last summer, so they actively followed the real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi.
However, the Spaniards rejected them and decided to stay in Spain instead.
Slot has been skillfully using Ryan Gravenberch this season, but recent displays show that more depth and quality are needed in the THD midfield.
Barrera is praised by former Liverpool manager Jurgen Kropo, who called the Italian midfielder “a top player.”
Signing a player like Barella is a move in a statement from the Premier League Giants, but it remains to be seen whether they are ready to spend a ton of transfer kittens on one player.
