What senior Liverpool sources are saying after claims Reds are about to sign Takefusa Kubo
Liverpool have been heavily linked with a move to sign Takefusa Kubo this summer.
The Arne Slot era has begun at Anfield, but the new Reds boss is yet to make a move in the transfer market. Liverpool haven’t signed a single player in this window so far.
Reds fans are hoping that will change soon as the new Premier League season starts in less than four weeks’ time. They know very well that their side haven’t closed the gap between themselves and the two clubs who finished above them in the 2023/24 season – Arsenal and Manchester City.
Kubo’s name has been making a lot of noise recently. Here’s the latest about the Japanese attacker.
What senior Liverpool sources are saying about Takefusa Kubo links
Kubo is one of the most talented players in La Liga.
The Japan international is a really exciting player to watch, and he definitely has admirers across Europe. It won’t be a surprise at all to see him leave Real Sociedad for a bigger club.
Reports claimed that Liverpool are preparing a £55 million bid to sign Kubo this summer. It was reported that the 23-year-old was being eyed as a potential successor to Mohamed Salah.
Rumours further claimed that Liverpool were close to making Kubo their first summer signing under Slot.
That got many Reds fans excited, but there is some bad news about the situation. have had their say about all the rumours linking Kubo to a big move to Anfield.
The report reveals that “senior sources at both Liverpool and Real Sociedad have dismissed those suggestions”.
Kubo has reported for Sociedad’s pre-season tour of Japan and is currently preparing for the friendly against Gamba Osaka on Thursday.
Liverpool have another exciting winger on their list
Kubo would’ve been an exciting signing for Liverpool fans, but he is not an option in this window, as things stand.
The Reds have been linked with several other attackers over the last few months, and many of them will excite Liverpool supporters just as much as the links to Kubo have done recently.
One such player is Johan Bakayoko, who has been heavily linked with a move to Liverpool for quite some time now.
Journalist Sacha Tavolieri revealed on on Monday that the Dutch winger is still on Liverpool’s list, but German giants Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig are considering him as well.
A transfer, if it were to happen, is expected in August.
