Liverpool transfer round-up: Reds plan for Gini Wijnaldum and Mohamed Salah exits

Liverpool are set for a busier summer than usual after what has been a difficult season.

The Reds were unable to mount a meaningful defence of their title as injuries and poor form hampered their ambitions.

Injuries to key men like Virgil van Dijk highlighted their need to have more quality in defence and Jurgen Klopp is expected to act.

Their usually prolific forward line has also struggled to produce regularly and there has been talk of a reshuffle in attack.

Mohamed Salah continues to be linked with the exit door but it would take a mammoth offer to secure his services.

Here are the latest transfer rumours from Anfield.

Bissouma for Gini

Liverpool are eyeing Brighton's Yves Bissouma as a replacement for Gini Wijnaldum.

The Telegraph claims that the Reds have identified the Mali international as a potential target this summer as they look to strengthen their midfield.

Klopp will be planning for Wijnaldum's exit as the Dutchman's contract has just months to run.

Barcelona have long been touted as the midfielder's next destination as he looks set to close the curtain on a five year Anfield stay.

Sancho eyed as Salah replacement

Liverpool will make am ove for Jadon Sancho should they lose Mohamed Salah in the summer, according to Bild .

The Reds do not expect Salah to quit Anfield but are making contingency plans should he seek pastures new.

Sancho has been linked with a Borussia Dortmund exit as Manchester United retain a long standing interest.

Salah has flirted this season with a move to Spain as he talked up both Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Reds still planning for Konate

Liverpool are still set to sign RB Leipzig's Ibrahima Konate, reports the Daily Mail.

The Merseysiders have recently posted account losses of £46m but are still ready to trigger Konate’s £40m release clause.

Klopp's defensive resources have been heavily tested this term and adding quality to their back line is a summer priority.

The Reds are ready to offload Divock Origi and Xherdan Shaqiri this summer in an effort to fund their transfer activity.
