Szoboszlai progress, Carvalho loaned & away kit launched – Latest LFC News

There is simply no such thing as a quiet day following Liverpool, even when there is no football to watch! Here, we try our best to cover all of Friday’s big stories.

 

Liverpool push forward on Szoboszlai

Liverpool’s pursuit of Dominik Szoboszlai is gathering pace, with the latest reports indicating that a deal could be reached sooner rather than later.

Reporter David Lynch wrote for This Is Anfield on Friday morning that the Reds are “engaged” in talks to sign the Hungarian midfielder, adding that the coming hours could be crucial in securing his signature.

The 22-year-old has a £60 million release clause in his contract which expires on June 30, meaning that Liverpool will have to act quickly if they are to get their man at that set price.

Newcastle are also said to have shown an interest in the player, but multiple reports have suggested that his preferred destination is Anfield.

Stay tuned this weekend for more developments, we will bring it all to you!
