Liverpool transfer news today: Salah offer 'LEAKED', Romano on Trent, Diaz contract WARNING
Here’s all your latest Liverpool FC transfer news.
Galatasaray Salah offer 'leaked'
Galatasaray shocked the world by securing the signing of Victor Osimhen on loan from Napoli at the end of the summer transfer window.
And now the Istanbul giants have been tipped to repeat the trick with Salah in a report from Turkish outlet Fotomac.
It claims that Galatasaray club officials have already met with Salah’s representatives to discuss a contract for the 32-year-old.
The report also states that leaked documents show that Gala will offer Salah an annual €20m salary, excluding his hefty signing-on fee, in effect matching his wallet-busting £350,000 per week deal at Anfield.
Trent BOMBSHELL
Speaking on his YouTube channel, renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano admitted Trent Alexander-Arnold is a ‘top, top, top’ Real Madrid target and outlined the conditions under which a deal might be concluded in January.
Romano conceded it looked like ‘mission impossible’ for Carlo Ancelotti’s side to complete a move for Alexander-Arnold unless they received notice from Liverpool that they would be prepared to face a sale.
“I am told that for January, Real Madrid internally feel that it is going to be almost mission impossible to sign Trent in the January transfer window,” he said.
“Trent is a name for the summer transfer window. That’s the idea for Real Madrid, and he’s always been considered a top, top, top target for the summer at Real Madrid.
“The only way to make it happen in January is if Liverpool tell them, ‘okay, let’s negotiate’. But Liverpool, at the moment, are absolutely not opening the doors to that.
“Liverpool are very happy with Trent as part of the squad. Liverpool are still discussing with Trent over a new deal, and Liverpool are still pushing to keep Trent at the club, to extend his contract, to find a way.”
Diaz contract warning
Luis Diaz earns a relatively low salary in comparison to his Liverpool teammates and Premier League players at large.
It’s reported that Diaz makes around £50,000 per week, far beneath the likes of Mo Salah and Virgil van Dijk, even though Diaz’s contributions have been no less significant this season.
On an Antena 2 program called Palabras Mayores, prominent Colombian football voice Carlos Antonio Velez decried Diaz’s salary, claiming he was only the 234th best-paid player in the English top flight and warned about the possible implications for the Reds down the line.
"He's Liverpool's joint top scorer this season alongside Salah with nine goals. Do you know what that means? Have we put that into context?" he asked.
'What the **** is happening to Chiesa?'
Federico Chiesa’s struggles have now been discussed by former Italy international and Serie A winner Antonio Cassano.
The 42-year-old is DISMAYED at the situation Chiesa currently finds himself in, unable to break into the team at Liverpool and cut adrift from the national team.
"You need to tell me what the f**k is happening with Chiesa,” he said on Viva el Futbol.
“A player who in 2021 was one of the best if not the best along with Donnarumma in the Italy team that won, and I thought, now he goes there, different league, he'll be fine and can play wing-back, can play wherever he wants and likes, but he can't even play 10 minutes in the league.
“He's physically unwell, hasn't settled in, isn't up to standard - we need to know something about this for our National team because in my opinion he's the most talented player we have.”
