Five Premier League clubs to rival Liverpool for exciting winger

Liverpool have some of the best talent in the world in their squad, but reinforcements are still needed.

The Reds have invested over £650 million into their squad since being crowned Premier League champions in 2025, but the rebuild isn't yet complete.

Julian Ward is now the man tasked with leading the recruitment team at Anfield, and the Englishman is already starting work on several deals.

The strategy at Liverpool in recent years has been to target some of the most exciting young players in Europe, and they are looking to do that once again in the upcoming winter window.

Antonio Nusa is one of the most exciting prospects currently playing in the Bundesliga, and the Reds are reportedly chasing the RB Leipzig man.

The 21-year-old has been on Liverpool's radar for some time, and they could soon accelerate their interest.

They won't be unopposed though, and Arsenal, Aston Villa, Crystal Palace, Newcastle and Tottenham have reportedly all joined the race for the Norway international.

That's according to a report from Ekrem Konur which states the German side continue to view Nusa as an important part of their project, and it will be tough to get them to sanction a sale.

FootballTransfers value the 21-year-old at €48.7 million (~£40.5m) and, although Konur’s update doesn’t mention a price tag, Leipzig will likely ask for substantially more.

Nusa is under contract in Germany until 2029, so there is no pressure to sell him any time soon, and the heavy interest in him could lead to a bidding war that will massively inflate his price tag.

Leipzig will be hoping that the Norwegian continues to perform at a high level so that the number of interested teams continues to rise.

Liverpool will have to be ruthless in their pursuit to beat off the competition and secure Nusa's signature, but the winger could be the next piece in the Reds' attacking overhaul.
