Liverpool is currently in the midst of the transfer window, with fans eagerly awaiting news of their first signing. The club has yet to complete a deal, but there are reports of two potential incoming transfers that could be finalized soon. Giorgi Mamardashvili, a goalkeeper from Valencia, has reportedly had a medical with Liverpool and is set to join the club for a fee of €35m. Mamardashvili, who starred for Georgia at Euro 2024, will return to Valencia on loan for the remainder of the season before officially joining Liverpool.
In addition to Mamardashvili, Liverpool is also exploring a deal for Juventus winger Federico Chiesa. Chiesa, who has fallen out of favor at Juventus under new manager Thiago Motta, has been omitted from the squad for the first two games of the season. Liverpool is considering bringing in the Italian international to bolster their attacking options under new manager Arne Slot.
Meanwhile, the future of Chelsea winger Raheem Sterling remains unclear. Sterling has been linked with a move to Manchester United, but reports suggest that he is open to a move to Old Trafford. However, talks with the Stamford Bridge hierarchy must take place first over his £300,000 a week wages and what happens to it if he moves on a lower salary elsewhere. Chelsea is also interested in a potential swap deal involving Sterling and Manchester United’s out-of-favor winger Jadon Sancho.
In other transfer news, there are reports and rumors surrounding Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford, West Ham midfielder James Ward-Prowse, and Crystal Palace striker Odsonne Edouard. As the transfer window deadline approaches, more deals are expected to be crammed in before the final day.
