Liverpool’s summer transfer business is still not over with under two weeks remaining in the transfer window to shut down.
The Reds have done majority of their transfer business this summer. They have strengthened their attack, midfield as well as their defense but changes could still be made by Arne Slot considering the options available in the market.
The Premier League champions are targeting moves for Newcastle United star Alexander Isak as well as Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi.
Both are being difficult to sign due to the stance taken by their current clubs but the situation could change soon giving Reds the hope of making a double deal that would make a statement.
Players could be allowed to leave the club as well, those are not in the plans of Slot or are refusing to sign a new deal.
Tsimikas and Konate could leave Liverpool
Left-back Kostas Tsimikas is expected to leave soon for more playing time away from Anfield while centre-back Ibrahima Konate, who has still not signed a new deal at the club after entering the final year of his contract, faces an uncertain future.
With Konate refusing to sign a new deal after failing to agree to terms offered to him by the club, the Merseyside club are ready to cash in on him this summer.
The French centre-back struggled in Liverpool’s first match of the season against Bournemouth. Antoine Semenyo left him on the floor when he scored for Andoni Iraola’s side to bring the visitors level in the match.
According to Mundo Deportivo, the Premier League giants are ready to sell the French defender this summer if they receive an offer of £35m for him.
Real Madrid are interested in Ibrahima Konate
Real Madrid have shown interest in signing him but only as a free agent at the end of the season, similar to how they signed former Liverpool player Trent Alexander-Arnold. Barcelona have also been linked with a move for Konate.
Due to failed negotiations over his wage demands, the Reds are now ready to entertain the idea of selling Konate this summer.
In that case, the potential signing of Guehi would become even more important for them.
The final few days of the transfer window are entering an exciting phase and Liverpool will be on of the clubs actively looking to make changes to their squad.

Ibou can be rash, and for a big man isn’t that good in the air. VVD alongside Guehi and mentoring Leoni with Gomez in additionis the way to go.
I agree with everything you have said. For me though, I would offer him and 65m to PSG for Barcola and forget ISAK.
Konate not good enough for Liverpool.
sell Konate to Barca instead just to spite Real Madrid…hehe..like as if that would happen
sell Konate immdly and Get Guehi as replacement⚽
Liverpool fancy Rodrigues from RM and RM want Konate why not swap with cash adjustment. Liverpool want Guehi from CP and CP are supposed to fancy Harvey Elliot once again why not swap with cash adjustment , saves a lot money. Please forget about ISAK if he can do that to Newcastle he can do it to anyone.
Konate’s loyalty cannot be guaranteed now. He might commit expensive blunders, obviously he’s not a happy man. Get Guehi immediately and dispose of Konate. No dilly dallying. Every point is important in a season of potential high competition. Get Isak. We need striking depth – no matter what else anyone may imply. He’s the best in the Premier League.
