Liverpool to make an offer for 30 million pounds sterling “this week”

It’s a good time to be a fanpool fan. Here is why.

Liverpool has just won the Premier League, in case you have missed it, in the first season since Jurgen Klopp called it a day. The FSG was tried in front of the public opinion court to have an impossible task on their hands, and few felt threatened when the boss of Feyenoord Arne Slot was appointed the emblematic German successor.

But Slot is now champion of England, and he is certainly rewarded for his triumph on the summer transfer market.

Last week, Liverpool announced the signing of Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen, having already made a descent into the German team for Jeremie Frimpong.

Wirtz is one of the tens of the most brilliant numbers in world football, and its fixed costs of 100 million pounds sterling could reach a British record 116 million pounds sterling.

Now Milos Kerkez has come down to Merseyside while completing the finest details of his move to Anfield. Bournemouth’s left rear will sign a move worth 40 million pounds sterling. It is presented as the successor of Andy Robertson.

The young Hungarian jumped on the occasion of signing the Reds of Slot, but what is it in his point of view on the great-back game that prompted FSG to face and make him the most expensive defender in the history of Liverpool?

Why Liverpool signed Milos Kerkez

Robertson is a legend, but there is no doubt that he is in decline. The 31 -year -old man is targeted by Atletico Madrid, and Kerkez, a decade of his junior, is the perfect heir.

While Kerkez, 21, is only part of English football for two years, he entered his under the wing of Andoni Iraola last season, starting the 38 of the high -flying matches of Bournemouth, marking twice and imposing five assists.

Athletic, energetic and tirelessly, he is the real deal, having also been coveted by Manchester City and Real Madrid. Liverpool has always been one step ahead, and it will help pass this wonderful team to the next level.

In a way, Slot struck the jackpot with the team he inherited, but we must not forget that Liverpool had spent four years without taste the Premier League, and he fueled the fire that had not done enough in recent seasons.

He deserves a squad shaped in his vision, and Kerkez corresponds to the bill. However, Liverpool still needs a central defender, and the sports director Richard Hughes just has the player in mind.

Liverpool Prepare the offer for the new defender

According to French journalist Sébastien Vidal, Liverpool should file their opening offer for Marc Guehi de Crystal Palace “at the end of the week”, news that follows the confirmation of Fabrizio Romano according to which FSG is indeed passionate after accepting to sell Jarell Quansah in Leverkusen.

It appeared several days ago that Merseysiders have a long -term interest in international in England, which is without contract in one year.

They would be ready to pay 30 million pounds sterling, but that should not convince the Eagles to separate.

However, Guehi, who is 24 years old, has just helped Palace to glorify himself in the FA Cup and wants insurance during his playing time, Arsenal, Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur also considered the contenders.

How Marc Guehi and Milos Kerkez could operate in tandem

Guehi has always had a certain degree of elite potential, after having crossed the ranks of the Chelsea’s Cobham Academy before being sold in Palace for 18 million pounds Sterling in 2021 after two impressive loan spells with Swansea City in the championship.

Now he is “the best central defender in England” for some, and the online analyst who made this assertion could certainly rely on data to support his complaint.

Indeed, Guehi won the FA Cup last year, but produced constantly quality quality performance during a series of years to attract the attention of Gareth Southgate, after having been in good place in Euro 2024, and now also of Thomas Tuchel.

Solid like a beef and misleadingly elegant on the ball, Guehi has the perfect style for “slotball”, protecting the goal of Alisson Becker while thinking of the focus of ball ball that the coach is waiting for.

It is definitely a stylistic approach that could see it prosper with Kerkez, who has already proven that is invaluable alongside a defender playing the ball at Dean Huijsen, that Liverpool wanted before signing for Real Madrid for 50 million pounds Sterling earlier this summer.

Guehi, as you go, was recorded by the FBREF data site as one of the most comparable players in Spanish rising in the Premier League last season, classified because it was among the 11% of positions for the involvement of objectives, the 9% among the balls and the 21% for the recovery of bullets by 90.

It is not only a flash in the pan, however, Guehi also standing under the Sordi wing of Roy Hodgson, the injuries limiting his game in 2023/24 when Oliver Glasner took the bar for the first time.

He is one of the best players, rented for his “incredible” football capacity by his teammate Ebelechi Eze, and clearly putting the accent on the progress of the game by dribbling a field or by selecting calculated before, Kerkez could find the long -term dream partner on the left side of the defense.

Of course, Virgil Van Dijk is pretty good at the fort in this area, but the skipper will be 34 years next month when he was entering the penultimate year of his Liverpool career, and, as analyst Ben Mattinson says so carefully, he is “one of these versatile CBs which can play both sides as comfortably”.

With such striking completeness and a winning taste in titles, Guehi would be a worthy addition to the cause of Liverpool and the perfect partner on the left for Kerkez to force force under the vigilant advice of Slot.
