TL;DR Liverpool FC is exploring transfer options, including Marcos Senesi from Bournemouth and Mamadou Sangaré. The club is also considering Denzel Dumfries for right-back and Bradley Barcola for attacking options as they prepare for next season.

As Liverpool FC âs season crawls to slow and dissatisfying close, transfer rumours are heating up.
First up, talkSPORTâs chief football correspondent, Alex Crook reports that Liverpool are weighing up an offer for Bournemouthâs Marcos Senesi.
This rumour has already been covered, but Tottenham Hotspur were believed to be the leading frontrunners for his services, with the caveat that they stay up. Still, itâs hard to imagine most players would choose Spurs over Liverpool unless guarantees of a starting spot or playing time are involved. Crook brings up KonatĂ© âs extension as possible factor, but from what Ibou said in the mixed zone a week or two ago, that seems done, with some final details to be sorted out so Iâm not sure. Additionally, the Senesi rumours, along with that of Jan Paul van Hecke of from reporting out of the Netherlands over the weekend, seem to suggest LFC are taking a close hard look at centre-backs who are good on the ball and comfortable passing it out of the back. Theyâre so different from KonatĂ© stylistically that I wouldnât be surprised if itâs a separate move altogether. It does bring up the question of why Liverpool would seem to be loading up on so many centre-backs but thatâs a topic for another day and Iâll let your imaginations run wild with the head coach/manager situationâŠ
Moving on, highlighted five key areas in the squad for the Reds to invest in the next season: a number 6, right-wing, right-back, left-back, and attack.
At the number six spot, he mentions Wharton, but also brings up âLiverpoolâs traditional close scrutiny of Ligue 1 means they will be aware of the well-regarded â. I think Wharton will go a long way towards solving Liverpoolâs problems with moving the ball out the back this season, but he should ideally be complemented by another midfielder whoâs capable of raising the intensity of the unit to deal with the defensive transition problems weâve seen all season. SangarĂ©, or âs , would definitely fit the bill. Both can win plenty of duels, and while Camara seems to be the better passer out of the two, theyâre both excellent technical players whoâll help move the ball up the pitch, and I wouldnât be mad if Liverpool pursued either one.
For right-wing, itâs again. King mentions the possibility of Liverpool using Leipzigâs long-standing interest in to help drive down the price.
At right-back, is again mentioned. The Dutch right wing-back was previously mooted as a possible target in the January window, but nothing materialised. He has a release clause, and perhaps will be brought in as a veteran option that will hopefully see less of midfielders being played at right-back.
At left-back, the return of Kosta from loan to be the backup to is possible, but heâs also 30 and will have a year left on his deal, so looking into an alternative who can better compete with Kerkez is being looked at. captain was linked recently, and will have one year remaining on his deal in the summer.
Finally in attack, King mentions that Liverpool will not be looking for a replacement to as he reocvers from his long-term injury. is unlikely to be moved due to his versatility, while is expected to move on. is brought up, and King specfically mentions the interested in him after âs departure, which they eventually distanced themselves, citing âs development pathway.
Fabrizo Romano is reporting that Curtis Jones is keen on joining Inter Milan, who may follow up on their interest in the player from January. Of course, this wouldnât be the first time a player thatâs soon out of contract will have used interest from another club to secure a new deal, so letâs see how it plays out.
Lastly, Mark Douglas of the iPaper mentions Liverpool as a possible suitor for Bournemouthâs Eli Junior Kroupi. I⊠highly doubt Liverpool are going to be able to justify spending another ÂŁ100m on the striker position after last summerâs Isak/Ekitike outlay. The attacking priorities will probably be the wingers, with a versatile player who could probably fill those central position minutes while Ekitikeâs covering.
