Melissa Reddy, a senior Sky Sports reporter, discusses Liverpool’s transfer activity and squad plans ahead of the 2025 summer window. She reveals that Liverpool are interested in signing Brazilian midfielder Andre Trindade from Fluminense, with the player keen to join despite his club’s reluctance to sell. A fee around £20 million is expected as Liverpool consider this transfer seriously, especially as alternative to Romeo Lavia, for whom Southampton have rejected two offers with a £50 million valuation. Ideally, Liverpool aims to add two midfielders and a defender before the window closes to compensate for the departures of Fabinho and Jordan Henderson[1].
Reddy also confirms Liverpool’s openness to selling Harvey Elliott, a shock move to many fans given Elliott’s potential. Elliott’s playing time has drastically reduced under new manager Arne Slot compared to Jurgen Klopp’s tenure, and the club would accept a strong offer for him despite his prior reluctance to leave Anfield. This suggests Liverpool is prepared for significant squad changes this summer, including potential sales of several first-team players amid plans described as “historical” in magnitude[2][4].
Additional insights touch on Liverpool's strategic acquisitions like Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen, who is seen as an ideal partner for Mohamed Salah on the right flank, offering a more intense, progressive style of play. His arrival is viewed as transformative for Liverpool’s attacking dynamics and is close to completion, with only formalities left between clubs[3].
Together, these transfer moves and potential sales reflect a considerable squad reshaping under Arne Slot’s management, balancing incoming talent with the possible departure of key players to maintain competitiveness in the Premier League.
