Liverpool can make transfer U-turn and sign £75m Premier League star

Up until Sunday's clash against Manchester City, the Reds were looking pretty solid. Article continues under the video And, even before Ryan Gravenberch got sent off, the clash felt fairly even.

However, after the Dutchman made his second yellow card challenge of the game, that's when the game turned on its head. Not only has this further proven why Liverpool still need to sign new players but, it's also shown them that, even though they've spent over £150 million, they're still nowhere near ready to compete for titles again.

But, if they manage to sign some players and bolster their ranks, they'll be well on their way back to the top. In the summer, Liverpool were linked with a whole host of players.

Almost every position of the Reds' first-team squad was scrutinised and, while only four players were brought in, each of them have helped improve Andoni Iraola's ranks in one way or another. Of course, initial enquiries may end up being rebuffed but, if Liverpool keep tabs on their targets, there could be opportunities to revisit deals.

And now, as per a fresh update from Sacha Tavolieri, that could be exactly what's about to happen. "Chelsea could revise their financial demands for Malo Gusto.

While the Blues valued their right-back at around £75 million during the last summer transfer window," theywrote. "The London club has since hinted that the Frenchman is not untouchable.

Should an offer be made that reflects his market value, the door would not be closed. Otherwise, he would prioritize staying at Chelsea.

The situation will therefore depend as much on the position of the London club's management as on the sporting prospects offered to the player. Chelsea are open to listening to offers, but Gusto has no intention of leaving at any cost.

However, if he doesn't find the role he wants at the Blues, the question of his future could resurface." Last season, Liverpool's right-back was one of their main problems.
