Monday’s Liverpool transfer roundup contained the scouting of an Iranian international, the pursuit of a Fulham youngster and the Reds’ desire to give a veteran a new contract. Today’s edition relays interest in a Real Madrid star, a new deal for a 24-year-old Belgian and an ex-player’s move to a new club.
Liverpool want Asensio
According to Spanish outlet El Desmarque, Liverpool are ready to go all out for winger Marco Asensio. The report claims that the Merseyside outfit would pay close to €75m (£67.4m) for the former RCD Mallorca player. Los Merengues manager Zinedine Zidane, however, would want Florentino Perez to include Sadio Mane in a deal for the 23-year-old.
Reds to push ahead with Origi contract
Liverpool will now push ahead in their attempts to secure a new contract for Divock Origi according to The Telegraph. The former Lille forward, who scored in the Champions League final as the Reds beat Tottenham 2-0, has now returned to training at Melwood following his end of season holiday, and the Anfield hierarchy are keen for him to commit his future to the club.
Moreno set to join Villarreal
Ex-Liverpool player Alberto Moreno is set to join Villarreal according to ESPN. The 27-year-old left-back is expected to sign a five-year contract with the La Liga club, having left the Anfield outfit at the end of last season.
