Liverpool’s wait for a new signing under Arne Slot could be set to drag on even longer after a Serie A club made their move for one Reds target.

With Slot now in place and Richard Hughes and Michael Edwards at the club💦, Liverpool fans were hoping for a busy summer of squad strengthening.

However, it’s♓ no♓t happened so far and it all seems pretty quiet on the Liverpool front really.

Despite links to midfielders suc🍨🎐h as Ederson at Atalanta and his midfield counterpart, Teun Koopmeiners, Liverpool appear to be nowhere near get💜ting anything done.

But once again﷽, it looks like Liverpool could miss out as a bid from Atalanta of all teams appears to have come to the table.

Atalanta make £14m bid for Liverpool-linked Matt O’Riley

According to a report from , interest from Atalanta in O’Riley has led🦹 to the🌱m making a bid for the Celtic star.

O’Riley was♎ in brilliant form for the Bhoys all last seas♓on and has quickly established himself as one of the best players in Scotland.

However, that form now has other ✅clubs sniffing around him and it looks like Atalanta are the first to put some🉐 money on the table.

Whether or not the Scottish sid🌊e accept the bid for O’Riley, remains to be seen.

Of course, for Liverpool fans, the optics on th👍is don’t look good once again.

If the ‘‘ O’Riley is to move to Atalanta then it once again looks 𝓀like the board and FSG haven’t moved quickly eno🗹ugh to tie down a target.

Yes, the Reds will have plenty of other play🐷ers on their radar and O’Riley might well ha🦋ve been someone they simply cast an eye over.

But with the season just a month away, Liverpool fans will be hoping business starts to pick up qui🌠ckly.
