‘Pretty strong feeling…’ – Journalist claims Liverpool are confident of landing ‘blistering’ maestro

A hitherto sleepy summer transfer window for Liverpool could be set to go into overdrive between now and the end of August.

The Athletic‘s David Ornstein may have sent Reds fans into a frenzy this morning when he reported that the club are ‘moving ahead’ with a move for an unnamed defensive midfielder from outside the Premier League.

That news came amid ongoing links with Anthony Gordon after it emerged that a £75m deal had actually been agreed with Newcastle in June, only for the Magpies to then put it on the back burner.
