Securing the key players’ futures was a priority over signing new ones for Liverpool this summer, and they have gone about it well. As per journalist James Pearce, the Reds are also looking to tie down Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah to new deals.
“There are a few contracts in the pipeline. I can see Virgil van Dijk being next. Liverpool are also looking to tie down Salah, Mane and Andy Robertson. Salah is the big one for me,” Pearce said.
Bournemouth boss hints Liverpool target might move this summer
Liverpool have been linked with a move to sign Arnaut Danjuma, and Bournemouth boss Scott Parker is unsure of the Dutchman’s future at the club. Danjuma impressed for Bournemouth in the Championship last season, and played a key role for the Cherries as they finished in a playoff spot.
Parker said he could not be affirmative in saying that Danjuma will be a Bournemouth player when the transfer window closes, saying:
"I think it's been well-documented, while we're in a transfer window, one of your best players, you understand you're vulnerable in that. We've rejected a bid from another club. I don't know whether that other club will come back; I don't know whether other clubs are around it. So I can't be committal on that."
Nat Phillips on four clubs’ radars
Nat Phillips has left Jurgen Klopp a tough decision to make in the near future. The defender played a key role for Liverpool in the second half of last season, but has been linked with an exit.
Phillips isn't expected to get much playing time this season, and is attracting interest from as many as four Premier League sides.
Newcastle United, Burnley, Brighton and Southampton have Phillips on their radars. The centre-back could reportedly be sold for a fee of £15 million.
