Plans are afoot to make big changes to Liverpool’s forward options in the summer transfer window.

Saudi Pro League clubs will be interested in the 33-year-old who signed a two-year, £400k per week contract renewal last year.
Chiesa meanwhile will be targeted by teams in Serie A having failed to make a significant first-team breakthrough under Arne Slot.
On the left side of attack Cody Gakpo hasn’t been at his best although he retains the faith of Arne Slot. The only other option is Rio Ngumoha – the skilful 17-year-old of whom fans would love to see more.
Therefore upgrades could be coming on both sides of attack – and it’s been claimed that the Premier League champions have reached out to Paris Saint-Germain to assess the availability of two treble-winning wingers according to a report in TEAMtalk.

“Liverpool made enquiries to establish whether either Doue or Barcola might become available as PSG continue shaping their squad,” the report reads.
Barcola is out of contract in 2028 and has been in and out of the Parisians’ starting lineup this season. Doue meanwhile is out of contract in 2029 and has endured somewhat of a stop-start campaign owing to injury.
