Aurelien Tchouameni makes 'decision' on Monaco future amid Liverpool transfer interest

The summer transfer window is getting ever closer and Liverpool are continuing to be linked with a host of potential new players.

Luis Diaz was the club's only signing in January with the Reds agreeing a £49m deal with Porto to bring the Colombia international to Anfield.

But with the season’s conclusion drawing near, rumours over possible summer transfer deals are beginning to intensify.

And here we take a look at some of the latest rumours doing the rounds online and on social media and how likely they are to happen.

Who?

Carlos Soler, Valencia midfielder.

What?

According to the report, Liverpool are one of a number of clubs looking at signing the Valencia midfielder this summer. Barcelona are also being credited with an interest, as are Atletico Madrid and Juventus.

The report states the Mestalla outfit have offered Soler a new deal to stay but this would include a release clause worth £34m.

But it has also been claimed that Soler is not happy with his manager Jose Bordalas and Valencia could be ‘obliged to sell’ the player this summer.

Who?

Frenkie De Jong, Barcelona midfielder.

Where?
Italian news outlet Calciomercato .

What?

According to the report, Barcelona have dramatically reduced their asking price for De Jong ahead of the summer transfer window. Liverpool have previously been tentatively linked with a move for the Holland international, as have the likes of Bayern Munich.

The report states that Barca will not sell De Jong for anything less than £50m. However, the player is thought to have a £337m release clause in his contract.

Whether the Nou Camp outfit actually consider letting the 24-year-old leave, given they paid Ajax £65m for his signature in 2019, is probably unlikely.

Who?

Aurelien Tchouameni, Monaco midfielder.

Where?

French news outlet RMC Sport .

What?

According to the report, Tchouameni has decided that he will definitely leave Monaco this summer, amid links with Liverpool.

The report states that the Reds are among the frontrunners to sign the 22-year-old along with fellow Premier League outfit Chelsea. Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid have also been credited as having an interest in signing Tchouameni.

It has previously been reported that Monaco would demand a fee of around £59m to part ways with the midfielder at the end of the season.
