Liverpool’s Transfer Window Nears Close
Liverpool face a tight deadline to finalize deals as the January transfer window closes on Monday. The club eyes potential reinforcements amid ongoing links to new signings, while rumors swirl around possible exits for key players. Tottenham Hotspur show interest in left-back Andy Robertson, and midfielder Curtis Jones attracts attention from Inter Milan for a loan with an option to buy.
Defensive Injury Crisis Spurs Backline Interest
Injuries to Jeremie Frimpong, Conor Bradley, Joe Gomez, and Giovanni Leoni highlight the need for defensive depth. Liverpool prioritize strengthening the backline before the window shuts, with several prospects in focus.
Jeremy Jacquet Pursuit Hits Roadblock
Liverpool and Chelsea express strong interest in Rennes defender Jeremy Jacquet as the deadline approaches. Both clubs engage in discussions with the Ligue 1 side, but a January transfer remains impossible. Rennes firmly reject any mid-season departure, pushing any potential deal to the summer at the earliest.
Earlier speculation tied Jacquet to Bayern Munich, though current indications point to an unlikely move to the Bundesliga giants for now.
Wataru Endo’s Future at Anfield
Midfielder Wataru Endo emerges as a target for Ajax ahead of Monday’s cutoff. The Dutch club eyes the Japanese international but faces steep challenges in securing his services. Endo proves unattainable during this window, leading Ajax to abandon their pursuit.
Ajax shift attention to alternatives, including Manchester United’s Manuel Ugarte, Arsenal’s Christian Norgaard, and Galatasaray’s Lucas Torreira. However, none of these players appear poised to leave their current teams before the deadline.
