Liverpool are preparing for key discussions regarding the future of Jayden Danns, with loan interest emerging ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.

The teenager is due to join Arne Slot’s first-team squad for pre-season, but a temporary move remains firmly on the table.

According to reports by the Northern Echo, Sunderland are expected to hold talks with Liverpool in the coming weeks.

The newly promoted Premier League side reportedly wants to renew the loan deal for Danns, after taking him mid-season.

Danns’ first stint with Sunderland was cut short before it even started, after discovering a back injury during his medical.

He remained with Liverpool’s medical team throughout.

He also built a positive relationship with Sunderland head coach Regis de Bris during his rehab.

While Sunderland would welcome him back, reports suggest they don’t expect him to lead the line.

Instead, he would provide cover and competition in their attacking unit, which includes Eliezer Mayenda and Wilson Isidor.

Other Championship clubs are also likely to express interest should Liverpool make him available.

There’s even potential for interest from abroad given Danns’ rising profile and his three goals already at senior level.

Slot plans to assess Danns closely during the club’s Far East tour in pre-season.

Then he’ll decide whether to integrate him into the senior setup or allow him to continue his development elsewhere.
