Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for Liverpool on Wednesday, December 23.

The summer transfer window has now closed and attention will begin to turn to January for Premier League champions Liverpool.

Jurgen Klopp's side brought in Thiago Alcantara, Diogo Jota and Kostas Tsimikas during the summer, making for one of their busier transfer windows in the last couple of years.

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

Wednesday morning's Liverpool transfer talk news roundup:


Manchester United 'to rival Liverpool for Renato Sanches'

Manchester United are reportedly set to battle Liverpool for the signature of Lille midfielder Renato Sanches.

The 23-year-old is out of action with a muscular injury at the minute but has enjoyed a successful stint in France since his ill-fated loan spell at Swansea City.

Sanches has made eight top-flight appearances this term for Lille, who currently top the rankings in Ligue 1, and the Portugal international has since been heavily linked with a move to Anfield amid uncertainty over Georginio Wijnaldum's future.

However, Gazzetta dello Sport claims that Man United are also admirers of the Dogues midfielder, while Inter Milan are keeping a close eye on developments.

The report claims that Lille may entertain offers for Sanches given the need to balance the books, and a bid of €20m (£18.2m) may be enough to prise the former Bayern Munich man away from the Stade Pierre-Mauroy.

Sanches is contracted to Christophe Galtier's side until the end of the 2022-23 campaign.



Barcelona 'desperate to sell Philippe Coutinho before next Liverpool payout'

Barcelona are reportedly keen to part ways with Philippe Coutinho in January as they bid to avoid more payouts to Liverpool.

While Barcelona shelled out a large portion of the £142m fee for Coutinho up front, some of the money is due to be paid in instalments and add-ons.

Given the current financial situation at Camp Nou, club officials have been continuing with attempts to sell the Brazilian playmaker as soon as possible.

According to Sport, they wish to ensure that Coutinho does not reach 100 appearances, the amount which would trigger another clause in his contract.

With Coutinho currently on 88 outings for the Catalan giants, Liverpool would receive an extra £18.2m if he features on 12 more occasions.

The issue effectively leaves manager Ronald Koeman having to manage Coutinho's game time unless a resolution can be found.
