Liverpool is aiming to finalize a significant swap deal this summer to strengthen their midfield, which has faced criticism for being too open. The club is reportedly targeting players like Eduardo Camavinga and Alexis Mac Allister.
Liverpool look to agree massive swap deal ahead of the summer window
Slot’s midfield has come under fire a lot this season and is often seen to be far too open.
Strengthening in the middle of the park will go a long way towards making the Reds challengers again and, according to a report from TEAMtalk, that is exactly what Hughes plans to do this summer.
The report states that Liverpool are big admirers of Eduardo Camavinga, and that Alexis Mac Allister could head to Madrid as part of a deal to bring the Frenchman to Merseyside.
Liverpool’s interest in the 23-year-old stretches back several years but has intensified recently as the club look to improve their midfield.
A straight swap deal could be complicated by financial fair play regulations, but separate deals seeing Camavinga head to Anfield and Mac Allister head to the Bernabeu are also possible.
A source privy to the situation told TEAMtalk that Liverpool ‘love’ Camavinga as a player and also appreciate his character, and that both clubs have already put a lot of work into deals for Camavinga and Mac Allister respectively.
Rumours linking the Argentine with a move away from Merseyside have been common in the last few months, and Los Blancos’ interest has been well-documented.
Camavinga is four years younger than Mac Allister, and the deal makes plenty of sense for everyone involved.
