Liverpool Transfer News LIVE - Marc Guehi Latest, Ryan Gravenberch 'Bid', £80m Star Interest

Liverpool's January transfer window is heating up as manager Arne Slot eyes reinforcements amid injuries and squad rebuilding efforts. Reports indicate the Reds plan to splash cash on a new centre-back, winger, and midfielder to bolster their title challenge.[1]



Marc Guehi and Centre-Back Priority

Crystal Palace's Marc Guehi emerges as a prime target, potentially as a successor to Virgil van Dijk. With Ibrahima Konate's injury concerns, Liverpool could accelerate a January bid or eye a summer move. Other names in the frame include Nico Schlotterbeck and Alessandro Bastoni, though the latter seems unlikely. Guehi's versatility and Premier League experience make him ideal for Slot's system.[1]

Ryan Gravenberch 'Bid' and Midfield Boost

A reported 'bid' for Ryan Gravenberch from Bayern Munich tests Liverpool's resolve, but the Dutch midfielder's form under Slot suggests the club will fight to keep him. Links to young talents like Lucas Bergvall highlight midfield depth needs.[1]

Winger Pursuit and £80m Star

For the wings, Antoine Semenyo from Bournemouth is a realistic option, alongside wilder links to Yildiz Liao. Interest in an £80m star—rumored to be a high-profile attacker—signals ambition, though details remain secretive.[1]

Outgoing Moves

Nat Phillips and Calvin Ramsay are set for Championship loans, with Leeds interested. Confirmed exits include Paul Glatzel to Swindon, Fabio Carvalho to Hull (loan), and Rhys Williams.[2][3]

Liverpool aim to keep plans under wraps during this "big window," prioritizing a centre-back amid a crucial season stretch. Stay tuned for updates.[1]
