Liverpool rate Randal Kolo Muani highly

Liverpool officials are drafting a transfer plan this summer, with the aim of recruiting Randal Kolo Muani to replace Roberto Firmino.

A few weeks ago, Firmino confirmed that he would be leaving Anfield at the end of his contract at the end of the season. The Brazilian player wanted to find a new experience for himself.

Manager Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool's football department highly rate Kolo Muani, the attacking player who has been outstanding for Frankfurt this season.

Kolo Muani has 11 goals and 10 assists in the Bundesliga. He is one of five players in Europe's top five leagues to surpass the 10 goals and 10 assists mark.

The other four are Lionel Messi (13 goals; 13 assists), Neymar (13; 11), Bukayo Saka (12; 10) and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (12; 10).

According to Sport Bild , Liverpool are likely to sell Diogo Jota to increase the budget to compete for Muani's signature with rivals MU, PSG and Chelsea.

AC Milan intend to buy Wilfried Gnonto to replace Rafael Leao

AC Milan are reportedly keen on bringing young talent Wilfried Gnonto back to Italy next summer, just a year after he joined English football.

Gnonto joined Leeds United in the summer transfer window last year, for 4.5 million Euros from FC Zurich (Switzerland). His current value is estimated to have increased fivefold.

The 19-year-old has made 16 Premier League appearances, racking up 1,066 minutes of playing time, scoring two goals and providing three assists.

Gnonto was a member of Inter Milan's youth team before moving to Switzerland to start his professional career. The Ivorian-born striker is now a key member of Roberto Mancini's Italy side.

Milan are uncertain about the future of Rafael Leao, who has refused to renew his contract (his current deal expires in 2024).

Therefore, the reigning Italian football champion considers Gnonto as a solution to supplement the attack if they part with the Portuguese player.

MU confirms to part ways with Harry Maguire Victor Lindelof

According to sources from the Netherlands, coach Erik ten Hag is planning to bring his former student Jurrien Timber from Ajax to MU this summer.

MU's project for the 2023-24 season is to say goodbye to Harry Maguire as well as Victor Lindelof.

To strengthen the defense and compete for two major titles, the Premier League and Champions League, MU is trying to complete the Timber deal.

Last summer, coach Ten Hag tried to lure the 21-year-old Dutch centre-back and Lisandro Martinez to Old Trafford. However, he has only had success with the Argentine player.

Timber has matured during his stay at Ajax, with 37 appearances to date. United hope to reach an agreement in negotiations with the Amsterdam club for a fee of 60 million Euros.
