Liverpool have been handed a major boost in their pursuit of one of their transfer targets.
The Reds had a quiet summer transfer window and they only made two signings after the arrival of new manager Arne Slot.
Goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili joined the club along with Italian attacker Federico Chiesa.
The Reds were expected to sign more players to address the issues facing their squad.
Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi’s rejection would have hurt the Merseyside club and their manager.
However, following their impressive start to the season, they will be more than happy with their options in attack and defense, which have been highly impressive so far.
One of the players that Liverpool could target as centre-back Virgil Van Dijk’s replacement is Bayer Leverkusen defender Jonathan Tah, according to journalist Christian Falk.
The Dutch defender has entered the final year of his contract at the club and it is possible that Liverpool have started making plans in the background for life without him.
Van Dijk’s uncertain future could force the club to make a move for Tah, who won the league with Leverkusen last season.
The defender himself has entered the final year of his contract at the Bundesliga club and now he has stated his desire not to renew his deal and leave the club at the end of the season.
Liverpool target Jonathan Tah has decided to leave Bayer Leverkusen.
Fabrizio Romano reported on his X account what the defender told SZ.
Jonathan Tah: “I’m NOT gonna sign a new deal at Bayer Leverkusen. My decision is made”.
“I will give my best until the end here and then we will see about my future club. But my decision is to go and try different experience.”
