Liverpool transfer news 2025 is heating up as the early window opening—designed to support clubs participating in the Club World Cup—gives the Reds a valuable head start. The club’s transfer strategy is in full swing, with significant moves already underway.
New Arrival: Frimpong Joins the Reds
On Sunday, Jeremie Frimpong will officially become a Liverpool player after his £29.5 million release clause was triggered. The defender joins from Bayer Leverkusen, and his arrival marks the beginning of what could be a record-breaking summer at Anfield. 
Transfer Targets: Wirtz and Kerkez on the Radar
Liverpool remain locked in talks with Bayer Leverkusen for Florian Wirtz after submitting a £109 million bid for the German international. The club also maintains strong interest in Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez, a left-back valued at £45 million.
Goalkeeper Situation: Kelleher Out, Mamardashvili In
Caoimhin Kelleher is expected to leave this summer as he chases regular first-team football. The Irish international has drawn interest from several Premier League clubs, including newly-promoted Leeds United, West Ham United, and especially Brentford, who are searching for a replacement for Mark Flekken following his move to Bayer Leverkusen.
Liverpool had planned to begin negotiations around £20 million for Kelleher, who enters the final year of his contract. With Giorgi Mamardashvili set to arrive from Valencia in a deal agreed last year for £29 million, Kelleher will become the third-choice keeper behind the Georgian and Alisson Becker.
Though Kelleher will depart Anfield with gratitude for his Carabao Cup contributions in 2022 and 2024, his desire to become a No. 1 has been clear for over a year. Brentford are now close to finalizing an £18 million deal for the 25-year-old.as reported by BBC Sport.
Left-Back Future: Robertson Keen to Stay
Andy Robertson recently expressed his desire to extend his Liverpool career. Speaking at Football For Change’s Easter Lunch event in April, he told Jamie Carragher:
“I’ve had eight amazing years and still have a year left. I’m not as young anymore, but I love this club and have created incredible memories. I’m hopeful about what lies ahead.”
“I still believe I can deliver high-level performances. I’ve done that this season and feel I belong at the top. If I keep performing, I hope to stay here for many more years.”
