Even though it has been widely reported that Liverpool have concluded their transfer business for the summer, rumours linking players with moves to Anfield continue to circulate. You can’t blame agents for pushing such stories for their clients, when the interest of the Reds is a serious seal of approval these days.
The club may have only made three signings, but their business has freshened up three sections of the team. The acquisitions of Calvin Ramsay, Fabio Carvalho and Darwin Nunez will provide an injection of exciting young talent into the defence, midfield and forward line respectively.
But having missed out on Aurelien Tchouameni, it’s clear the Reds were aiming to add another top star to their options in the centre of the park. It has been claimed they are interested in signing Nicolo Barella from Inter Milan for £85m, and it’s obvious how such stories might have started.
