Liverpool transfer news LIVE: Anthony Gordon and Caoimhin Kelleher ‘swap’, Leny Yoro twist

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia wants a move to the Premier League, a source close to the Georgia international’s camp has said (via the ECHO).

Liverpool is the only side namechecked as being in the race for the Napoli star, although the Reds are seemingly facing competition:

Liverpool have been linked with Kvaratskhelia, but two other Premier League clubs want him. He turned down PSG because he wants to come to England.

Leeds has rejected Brentford’s $51m (£40m) offer for Archie Gray, according to BBC Sport.

The 18-year-old traveled to London for a medical on Saturday, but the two clubs have failed to agree on a deal.

Liverpool is claimed to still be interested in Gray, along with Chelsea and Tottenham. Leeds need to sell players this summer after missing out on promotion back to the Premier League.

Liverpool goalkeeper Marcelo Pitaluga has had his loan spell in Ireland cut short after just seven appearances.

The 21-year-old made the move to St Patrick’s Athletic in January and was due to remain with the club for the duration of the Irish season, which runs from February to November.

St Patrick’s boss Stephen Kenny though confirmed on Friday that Pitaluga was heading back to Liverpool early.

We said goodbye to Marcelo, a great guy and a good career ahead of him, I think.

Liverpool wants to sign Igor Paixao from Feyenoord this summer, according to Globo Esporte.

Arne Slot of course knows the Brazilian well from his time in Rotterdam, and the report from South America suggests the 24-year-old is being tracked by the Reds, as well as several other clubs in Europe.

Paixao has even addressed rumors over his future, and namechecked Liverpool as he left the door open to a potential move.

Real Madrid hopeps to have a deal for Leny Yoro tied up before the start of their pre-season, according to Diario AS.

The race continues for the Lille defender, who is expected to leave the French side soon with his contract expiring next summer.

Liverpool is pursuing the 18-year-old, although Yoro is thought to be waiting for Madrid.

Rodrygo is losing faith that he will have a starting place at Real Madrid next season, according to Sport.

Kylian Mbappe’s arrival at the Bernabeu could limit the Brazilian’s chances, with Rodrygo said to be fearing that the French star will drift onto the wings.

Liverpool has been linked with a move for the 23-year-old, although he would almost certainly cost a big fee for the Reds.

Anthony Gordon is open to joining Liverpool, according to Fabrizio Romano.

The Reds could reportedly revive talks for the Newcastle star, although their chances of landing him now look much slimmer, with the Magpies closing in on deals to sell Yankuba Minteh and Elliot Anderson to Brighton and Nottingham Forest respectively.

Gordon though could be interested in a move to Anfield – he has previously dropped hints that he is a Liverpool fan. Read more here.

Archie Gray looks set to join one of Liverpool’s Premier League rivals, with BBC Sport claiming a deal has been agreed with Brentford.

The Leeds United star had been linked with a move to Anfield, but now looks set to undergo a medical in London.

The deal could reach $51m (£40m) with add-ons, making Gray a record signing for Brentford.

Juventus has named its price for Dean Huijsen this summer, according to Mirko Di Natale.

The Italian club is claimed to be reluctant to part ways with the 19-year-old defender, and will only do so for at least $32m (£25m/€30m).

Liverpool is linked with Huijsen, with PSG and Bayern Munich said to be leading the race. Borussia Dortmund, Newcastle, Bayer Leverkusen, RB Leipzig and Stuttgart are also said to be monitoring the situation.

Liverpool is interested in signing Georgia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili this summer, according to Marca (via Sport Witness).

The Reds are said to be ‘first in line’ for the Valencia stopper, who has impressed at Euro 2024 and will be in action later today against Spain.

Newcastle has also been linked though, with Valencia said to have turned down an offer from the Magpies.

Bologna is ready to sell Riccardo Calafiori this summer, according to The Sunday People (via Paisley Gates).

Liverpool is said to be interested in the defender, who could now become available after Italy were knocked out of Euro 2024 on Saturday.

Chelsea and Arsenal are also said to be in the running, and Bologna is claimed to be encouraging bids from interested clubs.

Joshua Kimmich is not interested in joining Liverpool this summer, and has his heart set on a move to Manchester City instead, according to the Daily Star (via the Express).

Liverpool had been linked with the German international, who could leave Bayern Munich soon with the German club reportedly not prepared to extend his contract beyond 2025.

Kimmich though is claimed to be ready to turn down any proposals from the Reds or Arsenal in favor of a move to City.

In case you missed it last night, Liverpool’s chances of signing Anthony Gordon might now be over after Newcastle managed to offload two of its players.

Yankuba Minteh and Elliot Anderson both made way, to Brighton and Nottingham Forest respectively, easing Newcastle’s PSR worries somewhat.

The PSR deadline is today, which gave Liverpool an opportunity to try and take advantage to secure Gordon, but with Newcastle doing other business, it looks like those hopes might now be all but over. Read the full story here.

Liverpool is set to test Newcastle United’s resolve with a bid of $63m (£50m/€59m) plus Caoimhin Kelleher for Anthony Gordon. That’s per TeamTalk.

The Reds had earlier declined the option of using Jarell Quansah in any transfer for Gordon. But it is seemingly exploring other ways of doing the deal.

Newcastle is believed to remain under PSR pressure ahead of today’s deadline, despite agreeing the sale of Yankuba Minteh to Brighton.
