Okegoal.com - This Sunday (7th February 2023) an update on the player transfers Liverpool are moving fast to catch their prey.
It didn’t take long for Liverpool to realize the recent arrival of Dominic Zuboszlai.
Meanwhile, with David de Gea’s contract with Manchester United expiring, his future continues to be debated.
After leaving Manchester United, David de Gea has the option to follow Cristiano Ronaldo to Al-Nasr.
David de Gea’s chances to succeed Cristiano Ronaldo are wide open, given the allure of the Saudi league.
This is evidenced by the departure of Europe’s top players to the Saudi league in this transfer window.
The arrival of a prominent player will automatically add to the well-being of the Saudi League squad for next season.
Here is a summary of the latest player transfer market compiled by Tribunnews from various sources.
1. Liverpool found quick movement in midfield.
Midfield is a central focus for Liverpool in this transfer market.
Liverpool’s success in signing Alexis McAllister from Brighton is proof of that.
Funded by 35 million euros, Liverpool defeated Argentina’s key players to win the 2022 World Cup.
McAllister will be the new locomotive in Liverpool’s midfield alongside the aging Jordan Henderson.
Hopefully McAllister’s presence can correct the departures of players like Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, James Milner and Naby Keita.
Liverpool are now one step closer to finding a partner for McAllister’s duo in Dominik Szoboszlai.
The Hungarian national team player currently promoting RB Leipzig is one step away from being installed by Liverpool.
Liverpool had to spend 70 million euros to activate the Hungarian midfielder’s release clause.
Journalist Fabrizio Romano also explained that transfer negotiations, personal requirements and medical examinations were almost complete.
Now, Dominik Szoboszlai’s arrival is only a matter of time and will happen soon in Liverpool.
2. David De Gea got a chance to join the Saudi league
As of July 1, 2023, De Gea is officially a player on a free transfer, also known as a free transfer.
This means every team has a chance to get De Gea’s signature for free.
It includes several Saudi league teams currently preparing for extravagant projects by recruiting players from Europe.
With the addition of Karim Benzema, N’Golo Kante and Edouard Mendy to Ruben Neves, the Saudi league has become more luxurious.
De Gea also had the opportunity to follow in the footsteps of these greats by joining the Saudi League.
As reported by the Mirror, Al Nasr is one of the club’s options for de Gea’s new career outlet.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s presence, apart from his outrageous nominal salary, has been an attraction for De Gea to join him.
The main goalkeeper option is also a major consideration for De Gea if he wants to acquire a new club soon.
3. Arsenal Whole Cedar and Timber Trading
Arsenal’s struggle to sign Declan Rice and Yoren Timber is entering the final round.
Currently, Arsenal are known to be discussing the method of payment of the transfer fee with the player owners.
As for Declan Rice, Arsenal will have to spend at least €105m to get him back from West Ham.
A payment plan for Declan Rice’s services is under discussion with West Ham.
On the West Ham side, the payment system wants to pay it off in at least 18 months, i.e. 1.5 years.
Meanwhile, Arsenal wants to complete the redemption in 2-4 years.
Beyond that, Football London has made it clear that there are no serious issues with the talks.
The two teams will soon realize a transition agreement in the near future.
Then, in the case of Timber, Arsenal and Ajax agreed on a transfer fee of 45 million euros for the player.
In the near future, Timber will undergo a medical examination at Arsenal before the club officially announces his arrival.
