Liverpool have a lot of changes that need to be made this summer.

They're currently sitting outside of the top four spots in the Premier League with Arne Slot and his men coming under some major scrutiny.

Fans were begging for new faces to be brought in during the winter transfer window with both Marc Guehi and Antoine Semenyo mentioned as potential targets.

However, since Manchester City prised them both away, Slot has been left with a lack of depth and a lot of problems.

So, with this in mind, it's hardly surprising to see the rumour mill going into overdrive about what Liverpool could do next.

Liverpool are not interested in signing Bayern Munich's Konrad Laimer

Liverpool's defence has been one of the main talking points to emerge from Anfield since the 2025-26 season kicked off.

It was clear that the Anfield outfit didn't have enough reliable depth among their ranks to get them through the campaign but that didn't stop them from trying.

To make matters worse, Giovanni Leoni suffered a season-long injury with Jeremie Frimpong and Conor Bradley spending more time on the treatment table than playing for their team.

This severe lack of depth has caused many questions to arise with rumours about Konrad Laimer's future being shared around, especially since negotiations about an extension with Bayern Munich have come to a halt.

But, unfortunately for Liverpool, it seems like the links were nothing but mythical.

That is, according to an update from Christian Falk who shared that it 'is not true' that Liverpool are concretely interested in the Austrian.

The report goes on to say that many clubs see him as 'one of the best right backs in Europe' so it's hardly surprising to see him being linked with moves away.

However, since there have been many 'problems' with his recent contract negotiations, the rumours aren't likely to die down any time soon.

Konrad Laimer would be a perfect transfer for Liverpool

Although Laimer has been turned into a right-back during his time with Bayern, he's actually a midfielder by trade.

He's 28 years old which is a bit older than most of the Reds' recent transfer targets but, the amount of experience he has under his belt is something that can't be looked over.

The fact that he'd be able to cover multiple positions is also a massive bonus, especially with the sheer number of injuries that the Reds have suffered.

His current contract runs until June 2027 so, if an agreement can't be reached between Laimer and Bayern before it expires, a cut-rate deal could be on the cards.

And, since Richard Hughes and Slot chose to spend over £450 million on new players last summer, a cheap-ish window could be exactly what the doctor ordered.
