Liverpool have reportedly entered talks to sign one of Europe’s most-wanted wingers. The Reds have yet another signing lined up.

This has been a remarkable summer at Liverpool already and we're only just getting started. Four deals have been completed thus far, with Trent Alexander-Arnold and Caoimhin Kelleher leaving to be replaced by Jeremie Frimpong and Armin Pecsi.

This week should see at least one more deal get over the line, too. Florian Wirtz is set for his medical on Friday and it sounds as though that one is pretty much sealed.

Talks for Milos Kerkez will accelerate this week - he may well sort his transfer to Liverpool before the week is out. And this is all with Giorgi Mamardashvili joining up with the squad for the first time after completing his transfer a year ago.

And there's now even more! Liverpool have entered talks with one of the most exciting prospects in Europe.

Liverpool in Malick Fofana talks

L'Équipe reports that Liverpool are a 'strong contender' for Malick Fofana. They're far from the only club interested in the Belgian but it's made clear here that they've pushed forward in talks.

More specifically, they're in discussions with Roc Nation, the agency that represents Fofana. Liverpool will see how those talks go before potentially pursuing a deal with Lyon.

Fofana only joined Lyon from Gent in January 2024 but he's quickly established himself as one of the most promising young wingers in Europe. 11 goals in all competitions last season showcased the 20-year-old, with six of those coming in the UEFA Europa League.

It appears Liverpool feel Fofana could be the future of their left flank, then. It makes sense, given Luis Diaz's future is up in the air after interest from Barcelona and Al-Nassr.

Fofana could be exactly the kind of squad player Liverpool want to replace him - someone to play second-fiddle to Cody Gakpo but with every intention of him being the starting winger down the line.

Watch this space, then. Fofana may well be the latest in a long line of transfers this summer.
