Liverpool transfer news today: HUGE Zubimendi offer & SHOCK wonderkid move

Here's your latest Liverpool transfer news for Friday November 22nd.

Liverpool preparing HUGE Martin Zubimendi offer

Even though Liverpool look like the best team in the world right now, the squad situation indicates that they might be in more of a transition period than people realise.

There is, obviously, the big three contracts of Mo Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold to sort out, as well as rumours of a new left-back and new centre-forward on the horizon.

One part of the squad that is seemingly settled, however, is the midfield.

The summer’s rejected approach for Martin Zubimendi left a hole at defensive midfield that Ryan Gravenberch has filled with a level no one truly expected. Alexis Mac Allister has held down the number 8 position well, whilst Dominik Szoboszlai and Curtis Jones have shared time at the advanced position on the inside-right, with the latter establishing himself as the starter right now.

As a result, it doesn’t really feel like a midfield addition is needed.

But a new report from TEAMtalk indicates that Liverpool are still very much interested in Martin Zubimendi and will move for him again in the January transfer window.

Although the 21-year-old has struggled a bit for game time at Lyon this season, he has still been able to impress on the pitch.

One of his most impressive stats is his Shot-Creating Actions per 90, which stands at 8.5.

Cherki’s 8.5 is better than any other player in Europe born in 2001or later this season.

Liverpool READY to sign Darwin Nunez's arch NEMESIS

Rumours of who his partner, should Van Dijk truly be heading out of the door, have been ablaze. A new one has emerged, however, and it’s an old foe.

CaughtOffside are reporting that Liverpool are interested in bringing Fulham’s Joachim Andersen to Anfield.

Andersen isn’t the most welcome man on Merseyside. Fans will remember the way in which the Danish international provoked Darwin Nuñez into ‘headbutting’ him - and subsequently making the most out of it - to get him sent off. It worked a treat.
