According to Fabrizio Romano,Liverpoolhave made ‘direct contact’ with the agents of two of their primary transfer targets in recent days.
The Reds are on the verge of completing their first summer signing, with amedical bookedfor Alexis Mac Allister ahead of his move being finalised, and could now switch their attention to further midfield recruitment, having requested for scope in getting the Ԁєɑł for the Argentine done first.
Taking toTwitteron Tuesday morning, the Italian transfer ɾєρօɾτer outlined:”Liverpool have been in direct contact with both Manu Koné and Khephren Thuram agents again this week.Internal discussion taking place over official proposals.
“Liverpool asked for some time to close in on Mac Allister Ԁєɑł then decide on new midfielders.”

This morning’s update from Romano ties in with atweet from yesterdayin which he indicated thatLiverpoolappear to be taking their various transfer targets step by step.
Once Mac Allister’s move is fully sealed, Jorg Schmadtke and co can then give much firmer attention to the pursuits of Kone and Thuram, who look set to take precedence over other prospective recruits for whom work is ongoing in the background.
It points to a well-structured and iԀєɑłly mapped-out transfer strategy from the Anfield hierarchy, with a clear ρłɑɴ in place as to the prioritisation of targets and a staggered policy being taken, rather than going in with an incoherent scattergun approach.
We can hopefully expect discernible progress regarding the Borussia Monchengladbach and Nice midfielders between now and this time next week, particularly with those two set to jump to the top of theLiverpoolpowerbrokers’ to-do list after the Argentine’s move is confirmed.
