Liverpool are poised to resume their summer transfer activity after a quiet period, with fresh developments surrounding Ibrahim Mbaye, Ezri Konsa, and Giovanni Leoni.
Mbaye's path to Anfield opens
The Reds have already secured Jeremy Jacquet and Victor Munoz this summer, but a lengthy gap between signings may soon end as the pursuit of Ibrahim Mbaye intensifies. The 18-year-old PSG winger is seen as a more affordable option compared to teammate Bradley Barcola, with a reported price tag of around £35 million.
Mbaye's potential move to Liverpool has been significantly boosted by PSG's official signing of Maghnes Akliouche from Monaco for £42.8 million. Akliouche, who was also linked with Liverpool, plays in similar positions to Mbaye, which could facilitate Mbaye's departure from the Parc des Princes if a fee is agreed.
Konsa and Leoni updates
Meanwhile, Liverpool continue to monitor Aston Villa defender Ezri Konsa as manager Andoni Iraola looks to strengthen his backline. Plans for the defence also appear to include Giovanni Leoni, who has reportedly been admired by Iraola for longer than previously known.
