Liverpool transfer news as Ryan Gravenberch asking price and Fede Valverde approach revealed

Liverpool remain frequently linked with players across England and Europe as the transfer rumour mill heads into overdrive.

The window is open for business, and rumours are circling every day about who could be joining Liverpool after they made their first signing of the summer in the shape of Alexis Mac Allister from Brighton. The World Cup winner signed a five-year contract with the Reds.

As previously reported by the ECHO, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is looking to reinforce his midfield with James Milner, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain all leaving Anfield this summer. The Reds are also targeting a left-sided centre-back.

And here is a round-up of the latest Liverpool transfer rumours as old and new names continue to be linked with a move to Anfield.

Nicolo Barella

Newcastle United are reportedly currently £30million off Inter Milan's valuation of Nicolo Barella.

That's according to the Independent, which is reporting that Newcastle may turn to AC Milan's Sandro Tonali, although negotiations are ongoing over Barella. The report goes on to claim that Liverpool have been similarly interested in Barella, but they nevertheless believe the price is currently far too high.

The 26-year-old helped his side reach the Champions League showpiece last season. He also helped his country reign supreme at the delayed Euro 2020 finals two summers ago.

Ryan Gravenberch

Liverpool would reportedly have to pay €25m to sign Ryan Gravenberch from Bayern Munich this summer.

The Dutchman was viewed as one of Europe’s top prospects when he arrived at the Allianz Arena last summer. Bayern fought off interest from Real Madrid and several Premier League clubs to sign him for around £20m.

Gravenberch is on the Reds' shortlist of targets, the ECHO understands, though a sticking point is likely to be Bayern's reluctance to part ways with the Dutchman. But according to Spanish outlet Fichajes, the midfielder's price is €25M, and as well as Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United are also interested.

Fede Valverde

Liverpool reportedly made a recent attempt to sign Real Madrid midfielder Fede Valverde.

That's according to TEAMtalk, who are reporting that the Reds made a very 'real' attempt to bring the Uruguayan to Anfield this summer. Strengthening his midfield is one of Jurgen Klopp's priorities this summer.

However, the report goes on to claim that Valverde is reportedly not looking to move, and Real are supposedly unwilling to sell anyway. Chelsea and Manchester City also, according to the report, made moves for the midfielder.
