The curious case of Liverpool. That’s how the story of the Reds in this transfer window could be named. The club from Anfield is the only Premier League side with no signings in this transfer period that – speaking of which – ends in nine days.Martin Zubimendi was on the verge of moving to England. The Reds had agreed with Real Sociedad to activate the buyout clause, but the player didn’t want to leave his boyhood club. Arne Slot’s squad lacks midfielders – Alexis Mac Allister, Ryan Gravenberch, Curtis Jones, Stefan Bajcetic, and Wataru Endo are the options, though the latter two could leave the club in the upcoming week.🥇| Liverpool are one of the clubs interested in signing Adrien Rabiot on a free transfer.

The Frenchman is currently a free agent after rejecting a contract extension with Juventus. He has significant experience representing the Old Lady and Paris Saint-Germain and would undoubtedly represent a serious reinforcement to Slot’s squad.By one parameter at least, Slot is the best Reds boss in this centuryHowever, Liverpool have a fierce competition regarding the 29-year-old’s transfer. Even though Man United pulled out of the race for Rabiot’s signature, there are still two interested parties – Bayern Munich and Inter Milan. And while Inter’s chances are not considered high since the player would hardly join Bianconeri’s fiercest rivals and thus betray the club where he spent five years, the Bavarians are serious candidates to bring in the Frenchman. The following nine days should answer what Rabiot’s next destination will be and whether he’ll choose one of the two red jerseys and – if yes – which one.##NAJAVA_MECA_8284024##
