'Special' wonderkid set for Liverpool exit as fresh transfer news emerges

There may not be all that long left in the January transfer window but that doesn't mean that moves aren't going to be made by Liverpool.

Arne Slot and Richard Hughes have already sanctioned plenty of change to go ahead this season with the Reds' first-team squad having a massive shake-up.

On the face of things, these changes looked to be positive but now that we're over half way into the campaign, it's clear that too much change has occurred at once.

Liverpool aren't even close to challenging for the Premier League title and although some of their squad have put in decent performances lately, there's still plenty of questions that need to be answered.

However, despite all this, change is still likely to occur at Anfield with a new exit edging closer to completion.

Lewis Koumas is on the verge of joining Hull City on loan

Lewis Koumas' season started out with Championship side Birmingham.

Most fans and journalists expected the young Welshman to quickly become one Chris Davies' most important players, and, although he played 25 games across all competitions for them, he only contributed to one goal.

This is due to the youngster being used as a left-midfielder rather than a left-winger which will have likely stopped him from getting forward as much as he'd have wanted to.

And, due to his poor form, he's been recalled from St Andrews and is now looking for his next club with a fresh report from Ben Jacobs outlining where that could be.

Taking to his personal X account, the journalist shared his thoughts on the situation and admitted that Koumas was close to joining another Championship club on a season-long loan.

"Liverpool winger Lewis Koumas is due for a medical at Hull City today ahead of a loan move," he wrote.

Lewis Koumas must prove that he has what it takes to become a Liverpool player one day

Throughout his career so far, Koumas has been highly regarded at Liverpool with Jurgen Klopp even dubbing him a "special" player.

Even though he's only 20 years old, he's already made his debut for Liverpool in the 2023-24 FA Cup with the attacker even getting himself a goal.

Last season, he became one of Stoke City's most important players as he played 49 games across all competitions while contributing to nine goal.

This form earned him another Championship move this season, and, even though things haven't gone all that well with Birmingham, a fresh start with Hull City could be exactly what he needs.

At the moment, it's unclear whether or not the youngster will get back to his best, but, with Hull's need for new attacking talent, this could be the perfect move for the Welshman.
