Liverpool transfer news LIVE: Khvicha Kvaratskhelia message, Kimmich ‘wants to move’, Eze latest

It remains to be seen whether Mohamed Salah will represent Egypt at this summer’s Olympic Games. But via Egypt Daily News, he will carry the country’s flag during the opening ceremony if he joins the team.

FIFA is not forcing clubs to release players for the tournament. Liverpool would no doubt be reluctant to lose a key player for the start of the season, especially under new manager Arne Slot.

But Salah might just want to play. He is yet to win silverware with Egypt, the only thing missing from a glittering career.

Liverpool are among the clubs to have been told that Kingsley Coman is likely to be on the market this summer. It comes as Bayern Munich finalise a deal for Michael Olise.

According to HITC, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal have all been informed of Coman’s situation. He only started 15 Bundesliga games last season, and the opportunities are expected to be fewer and fewer once Olise arrives.

The 28-year-old is valued at $63m (£50m/€59m). Although Liverpool have been contacted through intermediaries, it remains to be seen whether they would be interested in making a move.

Liverpool have reportedly been linked with Espanyol goalkeeper Joan Garcia. The ECHO has profiled the 23-year-old.

It’s unclear where the Liverpool rumors are coming from, but Gerard Romero has gone so far as to claim that Garcia will “soon” be an Arsenal player. So if the Reds are interested, they may have to make a move.

Garcia has just earned promotion to La Liga with Espanyol. Liverpool are likely to be in the market for a new goalkeeper this summer, with Adrian leaving for Real Betis and Caoimhin Kelleher’s future also uncertain.

Today it is the center of Kvaratskhelia. And while Napoli and Antonio Conte seem convinced he’s not going anywhere, the player himself has been a little less definitive.

“I respect Conte, he is one of the best managers,” he said after Georgia’s impressive victory against Portugal. “I also respect Naples, I love Naples.

“I will decide on my future after the Euro. Now I’m focusing on the match against Spain.”

With the statements from Napoli and now new boss Antonio Conte, it seems that Khvicha Kvaratskhelia will not be on the move this summer. Speaking on YouTube, Fabrizio Romano confirmed that the Georgian will now remain with the Serie A side.

However, he added that a “big English club” had already shown real interest in a transfer this summer. Although he didn’t name the team, one wonders if it could have been Liverpool.

Kvaratskhelia has been linked to the Reds before. And we think Arne Slot would like to add another option to the attack.

Unofficial “trades” are all the rage right now. The clubs affected by the PSR did a lot of business with each other before the June 30 accounting deadline.

Liverpool have no such concerns, but have nevertheless been asked to consider a swap.

The Express tells the Reds to offer Sepp van den Berg to Bologna in an attempt to secure a deal for Riccardo Calafiori over the line. Juventus are the favorites to seal their signing, but the Dutchman could tip it over.

Bologna have been interested in Van den Berg as a replacement for Calafiori, according to the Daily Mail. So, if Liverpool are really interested in the centre-back, they might as well try to turn that to their advantage.
