Liverpool is poised to be active in the transfer market in 2025 following a quiet summer window under Arne Slot’s management.
After Martin Zubimendi turned down a move to Anfield, Federico Chiesa was the only new arrival. However, a deal has been agreed to bring in Giorgi Mamardashvili from Valencia in 2025.
The upcoming transfer windows are crucial for Liverpool as the Dutch manager aims to refine his squad.
Notably, one of Liverpool’s transfer targets, Nico Williams, has received strong praise from José Mourinho, who believes Williams is superior to Lamine Yamal.
Mohamed Salah has received a new contract offer from Liverpool, but he hasn’t signed the extension, causing uncertainty about his future at Anfield.
In preparation for his possible exit, the Reds are linked with several attacking players, as replacing Salah would be a significant challenge due to his impressive performance over the years.
Graeme Bailey revealed to Rousing the Kop that Liverpool is interested in Athletic Bilbao’s Nico Williams, with Napoli’s Khvicha Kvaratskhelia also rumored for a transfer.
Williams has a release clause of £48 million and has attracted interest from Arsenal and Barcelona, continuing to excel for both club and country.
José Mourinho praised Williams, stating he prefers him over Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal, who has rapidly risen to prominence since last season.
“People are focused on Yamal, who is an excellent player, but I personally favor Nico Williams,” Mourinho told Spanish newspaper COPE. “I hope he ends up in white [Real Madrid].”
The dynamic winger was pivotal in Spain’s successful Euro 2024 campaign, scoring two goals and earning a spot on the Team of the Year.
However, his club performance this season hasn’t been as impressive, as reflected in his statistics.
Nevertheless, Williams is wanted by a handful of top clubs across the continent and it remains to be seen if Liverpool position themselves for his signature if he decides to leave.
