Key Players Staying Put
Despite the transfer speculation surrounding Liverpool, Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Virgil van Dijk are not expected to leave during this window. All three are in the final months of their current contracts, with ongoing discussions yet to yield an agreement on extensions. However, each has hinted at seeing out the remainder of their deals at Anfield.
Early Departures and Recent Transfers
- Marcelo Pitaluga: The Academy goalkeeper returned to Fluminense earlier this month.
- Tom Hill: The homegrown midfielder joined Harrogate Town on a permanent deal this week.
Unlikely Exits
- Wataru Endo and Federico Chiesa: Both players have received game time in recent weeks, signaling that manager Arne Slot plans to integrate them further into the squad.
- Darwin Núñez: Despite interest from Saudi Arabia and AC Milan, Liverpool has no intention of selling the Uruguayan forward during this window.
Possible Decisions and Temporary Moves
- Tyler Morton: The 22-year-old midfielder, who has featured in cup competitions but not in the Premier League this season, has expressed a willingness to make a move to advance his career. A permanent transfer offer could prompt a decision.
- Calvin Ramsay: Recalled from his loan at Wigan Athletic, Ramsay will now finish the season at Scottish side Kilmarnock.
- Rhys Williams: The young defender extended his loan at Morecambe in League Two until the summer.
- Kaide Gordon: Recalled from a loan spell at Norwich City, Gordon is attracting interest from several Championship clubs.
Potential Loan Moves for Academy Players
- Jayden Danns and James McConnell: Both featured in the first team recently, with Danns scoring in the FA Cup win over Accrington Stanley. Championship clubs may look to secure them on loan.
- Harvey Davies, James Norris, and Dominic Corness: This Academy trio, all previously loaned out, are strong candidates for temporary moves in the remainder of the season.
As the transfer deadline approaches, Liverpool is expected to finalize more exits, focusing on the development of its younger players and strategic adjustments for the squad.
