Fabrizio Romano unveils Liverpool transfer plan five days ahead of window closing

Posted by

Liverpool have not yet given up hope of further signings being secured in the remaining time left in the summer transfer window.

Fabrizio Romano has claimed that Jurgen Klopp’s outfit continues to scour the market for ‘a good option and a good deal’, with one yet to be forthcoming.

“The plan for the final week of the transfer window is to look for opportunities,” the Guardian reporter shared exclusively with CaughtOffside.

“Liverpool are still working to find a good option and a good deal in the final days. Nothing is clear in terms of names yet but the internal discussions are ongoing over potential signings.

“The club would like to sign another midfielder and a new centre-back, but it depends on the opportunities.”

Ryan Gravenberch has been heavily linked of late, whilst there could still be hope of a move for Cheick Doucoure according to one report coming from Football Insider.

With the warning signs already showing two games into the season following Ibrahima Konate’s muscle concern – after the Frenchman was overtasked in the aftermath of Alexis Mac Allister’s red card – one would have imagined the club would be keen to solve this area.

It’s hard not to be whisked back to the horrors of the 2020/21 season in which we likewise failed to properly address limited, injury-prone options in the backline on the proviso that those very same options would be enough to get us through the campaign.

Klopp has spoken previously about needing a bit of luck with injuries, and while that much is true, it seems a little masochistic on our part to go into yet another campaign without appropriate cover.

Certainly, if we have any intention of committing to the box-four system, we may have to forget our plans of signing a left-sided defender to ensure we have a player genuinely capable of performing Konate’s two-man job.

  1. We have been using that excuse for a good while now for this haphazard approach to strengthening the squad. Klopp also mentioning we need ‘luck’ that our defence don’t pick up any injuries just as Konate is injured not very comforting. FSG have not invested anywhere near enough in a window that was crucial for us especially after so many departures both on the pitch and behind the scenes. Hope we get some more players before deadline but not too confident hoping I’m wrong. FSG have also done this to Boston Red Sox and are not too popular either.

  2. Liverpools problem is the FSG they’ve to leave the club for good!
    There’s no hope on them I’m totally disappointed 😥 what a bad window

    1. who so real very badly extreme serious sensitive deep fucking totally really powerful strongest super true direct free personality automatically pure simple fully special direct private secret care and damn about it ok masanneh jarju

  3. VVD might never hit top form, Konate, Gomez and Matip are all injury prone.. We are not confident about our new no.6… Our defense is a mess. Less talk about our midfield department the better. Man City will never entertain such a back line.

  4. City always spend.We need a good number 6 Hojberg is available at spurs. Probably we’ll wait for more 15 years.

  5. Sometimes I felt bad for the way FSG handling things but in a way round I feels much happier that we still have klop so there hope.
    Generally Liverpool were blessed compare to their rivals red devil as well as blues considering how much they spent but no job satisfaction perhaps we specialised in that

  6. Fabrizio Romano has claimed that Jurgen Klopp’s outfit continues to scour the market for ‘a good option and a good deal’, with one yet to be forthcoming. And? What is the point of the article? Vague so vague that it could not be more vague.
    As for the lfc transfers, poor window! Once it was desided that fabhinho would be sold, the lfc supposedly super scouts and moneyball transfer department guys, should get out a huge list of no 6 dm players, if rgey did and all they could find is endo then something is wrong!
