Liverpool Arne Slot Richard Hughes Transfer Update Liverpool are reportedly preparing an £88 million offer for Inter Milan defender Alessandro Bastoni as questions continue to swirl around Ibrahima Konate’s future. According to Mundo Deportivo, Liverpool have already identified the 26-year-old as their top target and are ready to test Inter Milan’s resolve with a hefty £88 million bid next summer.

Inter won’t sell easily Bastoni remains a key part of Inter’s setup and is tied to the club until 2028. Inter president Beppe Marotta recently underlined the club’s position, saying: “For the first time, we’ve closed the year in the black; this is a historic achievement, and not a coincidence.” “The club has shown foresight and managed to move forward with clear guidelines and objectives.” While Inter’s stance appears firm, Liverpool’s financial muscle could make things interesting.

Liverpool’s interest in Bastoni also raises questions about Konate’s long-term future. Bastoni’s form this season further strengthens his case.
