Liverpool have reportedly set a deadline to agree a new contract with defender Ibrahima Konate. The Reds spent a significant portion of their title-winning campaign contending with speculation surrounding the futures of Virgil van Dijk, Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
A few days before the Devers trade, it was reported that Liverpool is signing Florian Wirtz to a club-record deal in the Premier League. The connection there, of course, is that Fenway Sports Group owns both the Reds Sox and Liverpool F.C.
Nabil Fekir confessed his confusion over why his proposed move to Liverpool fell through seven years ago. The French midfielder was seen as the ideal replacement for Philippe Coutinho, who had departed for Barcelona earlier in 2018.
The report claims that the Reds are on the brink of agreeing a deal worth between £40m and £45m, although there are still some final details to iron out before the transfer can be completed. Liverpool sporting director Richard Hughes is negotiating with his former club to establish the structure of the imminent transfer.
