Despite a summer of big investment, including the signings of Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak, the Reds could still make further additions in the winter window.<\/p>\n<p>Liverpool&#8217;s need for reinforcements was highlighted on Thursday night when full-back Conor Bradley was sent off with an injury during the goalless draw with Arsenal. This increases the urgency to increase the depth of the team. It&#8217;s a quick turnaround for Arn Slott and his team, who return to action on Monday night to face League One side Barnsley in the FA Cup third round.<\/p>\n<p>While Slott and his players are focused on the pitch, there will be a lot of activity behind the scenes in the transfer window. Here are some of the latest stories circulating around Anfield&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Manchester United transfer hijacking<\/h3>\n<p>Liverpool have reportedly made every effort to sign RB Leipzig&#8217;s young star Yann Diomande.<\/p>\n<p>They will join a crowded field that includes Manchester United, Manchester City, Tottenham, Bayern Munich, PSG and Barcelona.<\/p>\n<p>United are said to have already made an offer, but it falls short of Leipzig&#8217;s lofty \u00a386m valuation.<\/p>\n<p>He has over four years left on his contract and the Bundesliga side feel they are in a better position in negotiations.<\/p>\n<p>Leipzig believe the summer transfer window would be a good time to sell him, having only signed him last summer, and have no intention of selling him this month.<\/p>\n<p>According to reports, United are already in talks with the forward over a five-year deal, with an option for a further year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Chiesa&#8217;s text message appears<\/h3>\n<p>Meanwhile, according to Tuttosport, Federico Chiesa has sent a message to his former team-mates about a possible move in January.<\/p>\n<p>The Italian winger is reportedly open to a return to Turin and has been in contact with Dusan Vlahovic, Manuel Locatelli and Federico Gatti.<\/p>\n<p>To secure Chiesa&#8217;s return, Juventus, who received 15 million euros (13.3 million pounds) in his sale to Liverpool, will have to pay 10 million euros (8.9 million pounds) in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Liverpool are said to be considering only a permanent transfer, ruling out a loan deal with an option to buy.<\/p>\n<p>Chiesa himself has not responded to any other offers and is only interested in a possible return to Juventus.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2156084\/Liverpool-Man-Utd-transfer-news\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The January transfer window is heating up, with Liverpool at the center of several conversations.
