Midfielder agreement is days away and it's brilliant news for Liverpool

Liverpool are reportedly days away from an exciting agreement.

If there is one area where the club's supporters felt the Reds were left short, it is in the midfield over the course of the summer transfer window.

Liverpool lost an important squad player in Curtis Jones, who departed for Inter Milan. The Reds made some advances towards Lamine Camara but ultimately opted against pursuing a move for the AS Monaco midfielder.

That is because internally, Liverpool have a lot of faith in Trey Nyoni. The English youth international has been highly regarded by the club ever since he made his debut back when he was a 16-year-old under Jurgen Klopp.

Nyoni has now lived up to the hype in the last few weeks becoming Liverpool's best midfielders in the process and one of the first names on the team-sheet for Andoni Iraola.

Who Liverpool could buy in the January window

With Nyoni's performances bringing in a midfielder does not feel like an essential priority for the club. Liverpool will operate with a one in, one out policy.

There is some openness to offloading a midfielder.

Ryan Gravenberch and Dominik Szoboszlai have both struggled recently under Iraola and perhaps neither may be the best fit for the double pivot system the Spaniard wants to establish.

The concern is that both of them are on long-term contracts and it is moot whether anyone would be open to buying them out of their deals for a significant transfer fee and pay the high wages they are being paid at Anfield.

If movement does happen. Liverpool will likely continue to pursue a move for Camara. However, Manu Kone is also a player highly appreciated by the Reds.

Alexis Mac Allister is days away from Liverpool agreement

One player who is going nowhere is Alexis Mac Allister. The club want to die down the Argentine on a long-term deal after his brilliant performances this season.

Mac Allister has become an integral part of the club's midfield rebuild under Iraola and like Nyoni he is one of the first names on the team-sheet.

Even at 28-years-old with two years left on his deal, Liverpool will be reluctant to lose him and it looks like they are very close to coming to an agreement with the midfielder.

Journalist Ismael Mahmoud took to X to confirm that 'good news' is coming in the next 10 days regarding the Argentine.

Mahmoud has done several exclusive interviews with people connected to Mac Allister and has also previously reported updates about contract negotiations between the midfielder and the club. So it looks like he has strong sources.

His message on X would suggest a deal is now just a few days away from being completed.
