Liverpool's summer turmoil is intensifying. Agent Ravelle has indicated that captain Van Dijk is set to leave Anfield, while goalkeeper Alisson has reached a personal agreement with Juventus; the club, however, hopes Alisson will stay for another year.
According to The Athletic journalist James Pearce, Liverpool will not sell 17-year-old prospect Rio Ngumoha this summer, as head coach Arne Slot plans to build a rotation system featuring four high-quality wingers.
Although the Dutch centre-back is keen on Anfield, Liverpool are no longer actively pursuing the deal and may look elsewhere to strengthen at the back.
Liverpool have signaled to RB Leipzig their intention to sign Diomande in a package deal worth close to €100m, and still plan to add another pacey winger after completing the permanent signing of Muñoz.
Chiesa is leaning toward staying to fight for a starting role, Liverpool's goalkeeper situation could be set for change, and Kelleher has emerged as a potential option.
The Reds continue talks with RB Leipzig winger Yann Diomande amid fears of Paris Saint-Germain stepping in; Cody Gakpo's future after the World Cup remains uncertain.
The Reds may reluctantly offload Mac Allister as part of a squad reshuffle under new boss Iraola, with Real Madrid maintaining their interest, while several first-team stars have already departed.
With Andoni Iraola now installed as Liverpool's new head coach, industry insiders believe the Reds could recruit two Bournemouth mainstays, Kroupi and Scott, from his former club.
Barcelona have withdrawn from the race after their bid fell short of Inter's asking price, leaving Liverpool in pole position to sign Bastoni.
Liverpool are keen to include Gakpo as a makeweight in a deal for RB Leipzig rising star Diomande, but the player is strongly inclined to stay this summer and the Bundesliga club are demanding a club-record fee in excess of €130m.
