Liverpool Transfer News Today
Date: July 10, 2025
Liverpool keep their hectic summer going with transfer updates that have huge stakes. From new targets to huge bids, these are today's highest headlines:
Liverpool Seeking Parma Defender Giovanni Leoni
Liverpool have made a Premier League move for Giovanni Leoni, the 18-year-old Parma defender standing at 6'5\". Newcastle, Tottenham, Inter, and Milan are also in the hunt, and Liverpool see Leoni as a defensive long-term prospect in the wake of Jarell Quansah's exit. Parma would prefer to keep him, but the Reds are set to become more ambitious in their recruiting. (Liverpool Offside)
⚽ Napoli Make €55M Bid for Darwin Núñez
Turn-overs from Serie A: Napoli have submitted €55 million (£47 m) (with €5 m add-ons) offers for Darwin Núñez, making Liverpool reluctant to negotiate in the face of valuation differences. Liverpool allegedly value him higher at £60–70 m and rejected the initial offer, but Naples might revisit with a best offer once they sell Victor Osimhen. (Liverpool Offside)
Luis Díaz on Bayern Munich's Radar
Bayern Munich are reportedly poised to trigger Luis Díaz’s release clause (~£77 m), despite Liverpool’s attempts to delay the move. The Colombian winger has reached a verbal agreement, and Bayern aim to finalize the deal soon.
Record Liverpool Spending Continues
Under Arne Slot’s direction, Liverpool's summer spending has exceeded £196 million with major signings:
- Florian Wirtz – club-record £100 m (possibly £116.5 m) from Bayer Leverkusen
- Jeremie Frimpong – £29.5 m
- Milos Kerkez – £40 m
- Plus: goalkeepers Ármin Pécsi, Giorgi Mamardashvili, Freddie Woodman (en.wikipedia.org)
Why It Matters
| Issue | Implications |
|---|---|
| Leoni pursuit | Adds depth to the LB position with a high-ceiling young talent. |
| Núñez saga | Departure would pay for further additions, most notably striker replacements. |
| Díaz departure | Bayern interest indicates that Liverpool is willing to sell their top stars for money. |
| Summer spree | Re-shaping squad shape—defensive rebuild, elite midfield creativity, backup GK depth. |
