Liverpool They are supposedly ready to come face to face with manchester united about an agreement to sign Dani Olmo this summer, according to the Spanish media Sports world.
After finishing third and winning the Carabao Cup in Jurgen KloppIn the final season, the Reds will begin a new era under the leadership of Arne Slot starting next season. Klopp has enjoyed great success over the last decade, winning every tournament possible. Therefore, the Dutchman would find it difficult to succeed the German.
The Merseyside club are therefore apparently looking to strengthen the squad this summer to give Slot enough firepower to challenge on all fronts next season.
It has been suggested that Liverpool are prioritizing signing a new defender following the departure of Joel Matip, but signing a new midfielder is also on their radar as they have been linked with a few names in recent times.

The report further claims that the Spaniard has a £51m release clause in his current contract and that the clause can be activated before July 15. Liverpool may therefore manage to secure his signature early this summer.
However, the report says that Manchester United are also interested in signing him and, furthermore, Bayern Munich. city of manchester and Barcelona They are also considering a breakthrough. Liverpool will therefore face stiff competition from their rivals to secure any potential deal for him.
United endured a woeful campaign this season, but their terrible season turned into a successful one after the FA Cup triumph, beating the Citizens in the final last weekend. So, despite failing to secure the European spot due to league position, they have now secured the European League place after the FA Cup victory.
It has been suggested that United will remain busy for years to come. transfer window to strengthen their squad and sign a new striker is on their wish list.
However, although Olmo can play in the false nine position, he is more comfortable playing on the flanks or in the attacking midfield position. Man Utd already have enough firepower in these positions, while Liverpool are also well supplied in these departments. Therefore, Man Utd or Liverpool do not need to spend money to sign Olmo unless they choose to sell any of their current options in the coming weeks.
