Romano: Liverpool Actively Pursuing Balogun Transfer, Confident in Signing Player

ScoreFast365 August 17 - Recently, transfer expert Romano revealed that after Paris Saint-Germain's defeat to Lens in the French Super Cup, Balogun and Mbappe were not included in the squad, which is seen as a clear signal that both players are likely to leave the club.

With attackers like Dembélé and Ferran already in the squad, the club intends to cash in by selling Balogun and Mbappe. Liverpool is actively pushing for Balogun's transfer, and both parties have reached a verbal agreement on personal terms. The Reds are confident in completing this deal, with negotiations expected to enter a critical phase before Monday. Romano stated: “Balogun is not untouchable, and he himself did not comment on the transfer after the match; everything will be assessed after the summer window closes.” As for Mbappe, Liverpool has initiated talks with his agent Mendes, and the player is very eager to join, but PSG's asking price is too high. Liverpool will not pay more than €200 million for both players unless PSG lowers their price or the Reds find a reasonable package deal.

It is reported that Liverpool's current offer for Mbappe does not meet PSG's demands, and Mbappe may turn to other suitors. The final outcome will depend on the negotiations between the two clubs.
