Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for Liverpool on Monday, February 22.

The January transfer window has now closed, leaving Liverpool to begin looking forward to the summer for their next round of recruitment.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest news on possible comings and goings from Anfield.

Monday morning's Liverpool transfer talk news roundup:


Manchester United 'keeping an eye on Everton's Jarrad Branthwaite'

Manchester United are reportedly keeping a close eye on the development of Everton's Jarrad Branthwaite.

The 18-year-old joined the Toffees from Carlisle United in January 2020 and has made five first-team appearances for the Merseyside giants, including four outings in the Premier League.

The centre-back joined Blackburn Rovers on loan in January and has already featured on seven occasions for the Championship outfit.

According to the Daily Mail, Branthwaite's performances for the second-tier outfit have caught the attention of United, who are now monitoring his progress with the view to a potential move.

The report claims that Liverpool and Manchester City have also been attracted to the Englishman.

The teenager has been a constant for Blackburn in the Championship since his arrival during the January window, starting and finishing each of their seven league fixtures.



Chelsea, Liverpool to rival Manchester United for Ibrahima Konate?

Manchester United will reportedly have to fend off interest from Chelsea and Liverpool to secure the services of RB Leipzig defender Ibrahima Konate.

Having failed to bring in a new centre-back in the past two transfer windows, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will supposedly prioritise that position in the summer.

The Red Devils were linked with a move for Leipzig's Dayot Upamecano before he agreed a move to Bayern Munich, while Sevilla's Jules Kounde is also thought to be on Solskjaer's radar.

Man United have been credited with an interest in Upamecano's teammate Konate, but according to Bild, Chelsea and Liverpool are all keeping a close eye on the situation as well.

All three Premier League powerhouses were linked with a move for Upamecano, and the report claims that Konate is United's next defensive target after they missed out on his compatriot.

The 21-year-old is under contract at Leipzig until the end of the 2022-23 campaign, but he is understood to possess a €45m (£39m) release clause in his deal, which becomes active this summer.
