Liverpool is predicted to pursue a £60 million transfer following the Milos Kerkez deal, as doubts arise about a recent signing.

Liverpool has had an active start to the summer transfer window as Arne Slot aims to mold the first team in his vision.

The Reds have acquired Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen as a replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold, who moved to Real Madrid. Additionally, they have set a new British transfer record by signing German playmaker Florian Wirtz from Leverkusen for £116 million.

More signings are anticipated, with Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez expected to arrive in the coming days. Here are the latest updates from Anfield.

### Fofana Links
Liverpool is reportedly interested in signing Lyon winger Malick Fofana after finalizing the Kerkez deal. Sky Sports journalist Sacha Tavolieri has noted that Fofana’s agents are actively working to raise his profile in the English market ahead of a potential transfer. Liverpool is among the clubs keen on securing his services.

Fofana is believed to be valued at around €50 million (£43 million), with Lyon hoping for a bidding war to increase the price of their Belgian talent, potentially aiming for €70 million (£60 million).

### Frimpong Questioned
Liverpool legend Steve Nicol has expressed doubts about Jeremie Frimpong’s starting position for the upcoming season. He stated, “If Salah’s not fit, then Frimpong starts where Salah plays. I’m curious to see what Arne Slot expects from him because I wonder if he’ll interfere with Salah’s play.”

Nicol added, “Defensively, he’s not as strong, similar to Trent [Alexander-Arnold]. While he has different strengths going forward, I keep circling back to whether he will get in Salah’s way.”

He concluded, “If everyone is fit, I believe [Conor] Bradley will start, and I don’t see where Frimpong fits in.”
