Liverpool transfer news: 2 in, 3 out as Reds eye £29m Serie A raid & striker to join Premier League rivals

Liverpool transfer news – more changes before the end of the summer.

There could be more big Liverpool transfer news before the end of the summer, with Reds boss Brendan Rodgers seeking to offload three unwanted players and bring in two new additions.

According to recent reports, these could be the changes at Anfield in the final weeks of the transfer window:

Out – Lucas Leiva

Linked with both AC Milan and Juventus, Brazilian midfielder Lucas Leiva looks likely to make an exit from Liverpool this summer after falling out of favour in that position.

In – Mateo Kovacic

Likely to come in as a replacement for Lucas, Inter Milan starlet Mateo Kovacic has repeatedly been linked with a move to Liverpool this summer and looks a smart purchase for around £18m.

Out – Fabio Borini

Supposedly set for a move to either Sunderland or West Ham, Fabio Borini is sure to be on his way out of Liverpool after failing to make an impact, but he’ll stay in the Premier League.

In – Keita Balde

Worth around £8m, Lazio winger Keita Balde has been linked with the Reds in recent weeks in what could be a superb buy to boost the club’s attack.

Out – Mario Balotelli

A player Liverpool are struggling to sell, Mario Balotelli could be on his way this summer as the likes of Lazio and Sampdoria show an interest, though it may be that the Italian will stick around at Anfield to pick up a reported bonus that he’s due after the transfer deadline.
