Liverpool transfers - Adama Traore £25m bid and Ben Davies exit

Who?

Kalvin Phillips

Where?

The i newspaper

What?

Kalvin Phillips has "no desire" to leave Leeds United this summer, according to his agent.

Liverpool have been credited with interest in the midfielder in recent weeks since the departure of Gini Wijnaldum for PSG.

Phillips has shone in midfield for England at Euro 2020 and has quickly become one of the Three Lions' most important players, starting all six games so far.

The 25-year-old's performances alongside Declan Rice reportedly have turned Jurgen Klopp's head.

However, the Reds will be left disappointed as Phillips's manager and former Leeds player Kevin Sharp told the i newspaper the England international has no intention of leaving his boyhood club.

Who?

Ben Davies

Where?

MailOnline

What?

Celtic have rejoined the race to sign Liverpool defender Ben Davies on loan, according to the MailOnline.

The Scottish side were close to securing a £2million deal for Davies in January before Klopp swooped in with a shock move to bring the defender to Anfield.

Celtic could have a second chance this summer though as the Parkhead club are said to be back in the hunt.

Davies has yet to experience any action for the Reds' first team and with the return of Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip he will fall further down the pecking order.

Celtic are now in competition with a posse of English clubs, including Championship side Bournemouth, to secure the 25-year-old's services on a season-long loan deal.

Who?

Adama Traore

Where?

Football Insider

What?

Liverpool have told Wolves they are willing to pay up to £25million for Adama Traore, according to reports from Football Insider.

The Reds reportedly made a shock enquiry for the Wolves forward earlier this week.

Klopp's side are eyeing up a move for the 25-year-old in a move to bolster their attacking options and made contact with the Wolverhampton outfit to register their interest.

However, a potential deal for the Spanish international is some way off given the difference in valuation between the two clubs, according to a Liverpool source.

The Reds are willing to pay £20-25million for the rapid winger but Wolves reportedly would demand £50million.
