First Liverpool recruit who would “eventually end up at Anfield” will cost Arne Slot “up to €100 million,” according to sources.
Reports indicate that Liverpool is leading the race to secure the services of Benfica defender Antonio Silva. Real Madrid Confidencial suggests that when Arne Slot takes over as manager, Silva could make his way to Anfield. Despite Real Madrid’s interest in Silva, Liverpool seems poised to activate his €100 million release clause. With Joel Matip leaving and Virgil van Dijk’s contract nearing its end, Liverpool is expected to bolster its defense. Ibrahima Konate’s playing time has diminished, with youngster Jarell Quansah often partnering van Dijk, while Joe Gomez has primarily featured in full-back positions this season, making just one start as a central defender in the Premier League.
