Liverpool transfer news as 'approach' made for $106m star amid Real Madrid battle
Liverpool FC is reportedly interested in signing Jarrad Branthwaite, a 22-year-old defender from Everton, and has already made contact with his agent ¹. However, Everton values Branthwaite at around $106 million, which could be a significant obstacle for Liverpool . Additionally, Liverpool is also linked with Palmeiras defender Vitor Reis, but faces competition from Real Madrid, Arsenal, and Barcelona.
It's worth noting that Liverpool had a quiet summer transfer window, signing only Giorgi Mamardashvili and Federico Chiesa, but the club is off to a great start this season under new head coach Arne Slot . However, with Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk, and Trent Alexander-Arnold's contracts set to expire next summer, Liverpool may need to make some moves in the transfer market to secure their future .
Liverpool's interest in Branthwaite and Reis suggests that the club is looking to strengthen its defense, but it remains to be seen whether they will be able to secure their targets . The club's fans will be hoping for some positive news on the transfer front, especially with the likes of Salah, Van Dijk, and Alexander-Arnold's futures still uncertain .
