Although Liverpool dominated the Premier League last season, manager Arne Slot and sporting director Richard Hughes remain active in the transfer market, determined to strengthen the squad for their title defense and a deeper European run next season.
As reported by Fichajes, Liverpool are eyeing an ambitious double swoop for Barcelona pair Fermin Lopez and Andreas Christensen, underscoring their commitment to building on their recent success.
According to reports, Liverpool are prepared to submit a €100 million bid to Barcelona, with €80 million earmarked for Fermin Lopez and €20 million for Andreas Christensen.
Despite already being busy in the transfer window, Liverpool continue to pursue further reinforcements.
The reigning Premier League champions have bolstered their squad with several signings this summer, including Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong, Armin Pecsi, Freddie Woodman, and Giorgi Mamardashvili. However, securing Lopez and Christensen would mark a major show of ambition from Arne Slot’s side.
As reported by Fichajes, Liverpool have made an aggressive approach to sway Barcelona, underlining their intent to keep improving ahead of the upcoming campaign.
Fermin Lopez, a talented young midfielder, has caught Slot’s eye due to his technical ability and adaptability. Slot sees him as a valuable addition to the midfield alongside Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, enhancing both creativity and control.
On the other hand, Christensen brings Premier League experience from his time at Chelsea. With Jarell Quansah departing this summer, Liverpool are aiming to add depth to their central defense.
Still, many believe that bringing in a new striker should remain a top priority before finalizing other deals.
