Bundesliga club give up on signing Liverpool talent before transfer deadline amid ‘price explosion’
Liverpool are still waiting for a first summer signing but appear to be closing in on a major sale ahead of next week’s transfer deadline.
Th🌊e Reds have endured a rather quiet summer desp𒁃ite embarking on a new era under Arne Slot.
Liverpool are the only Premier Lꩲeague team yet to bring in a new signing this summer and time is running out for new ar🐎rivals.
Liverpool did want a new midfielder but Martin Zubimendi reject a move to Anfield, deciding to stay with Real Sociedad instead.
Fans may still hope for a signing from somewhere but Liverpool may actually b🌠e more focused on selling players right now.

Sepp van den Berg transfer latest
claim that Liverpool have ag♈r𝐆eed to sell 20-year-old forward Harvey Blair to Portsmouth.
The Reds have a bigger sale in mind though with defender Sepp van den Berg expected to move on.
Van den Berg impressed Slot in pre-season but first-team action is unlikely for൩ the𓃲 Dutchman.
Bayer Leverkusen and Brentford are now in a £25mllion fight over Van den Berg but one cౠlub have effectively pulled out ꦦof the race.
claim that Wolfsburg – managed by former Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl – have ‘dro♍pped out’ of the battle to land Van den Berg.
It’s suggested that a ‘price explosion’ has taken place at all levels of the deal with Li✅verpool demanding more and more money and Van Berg’s wage demands rising.
Wolfsburg had hope of a deal but have now given up, leaving the decision to comeꦬ down to Bayer Leverkusen or Brentford.
Van den Berg 🙈has spent the last two seasons in Germany with Schalke and Mainz and could now return – ൲but with Bayer Leverkusen rather than Wolfsburg.
Domino effect for Newcastle United
This news could be a major blow for Newcastle United given the knock-on effect highlighted by Kiﷺcker.
They suggest that Wolfsburg had identified Van den Berg as their ideal replacement for defeꦺnder Maxence Lacro🐬ix.
Lacroix has been a key target for Crystal Palace with boss Oliver G꧟lasner familiar with the Frenchman following his tiꦇme as Wolfsburg boss.
In turn, Palace are looking at L🐓acroix with Marc Guehi attracting major interest.
Newcastle have been chasing Guehi but have yet to agree a deal with Palace, leading to the Magpies looking at a♏lternatives such as Axꩵel Disasi.
With Van den Berg no longer on Wolfsburg’s wish list, they may choose to keep Lacroix – and complicate Newcastle’s Guehi pursuit even m🙈ore.
