Julian Ward has made-up his mind, massive Liverpool offer coming
Liverpool are preparing a big offer according to a brand-new report.
Julian Ward's era at Anfield is off to a solid start. Andoni Iraola's Liverpool side are in great form and it's clear the Spaniard has a much stronger faith in young players in comparison to his predecessor, Arne Slot.
That's exactly what Ward as the club's sporting director wants to see. Ward's philosophy at Liverpool has always been to promote young players and to identify the best young players on the planet.
Prior to becoming a sporting director for the second time, Ward has been working behind the scenes negotiating important contracts for Liverpool's stand-out academy talent and also working behind the scenes to bring in exciting new signings from around the globe at U18 level.
Liverpool's exciting foundations for the future
In collaboration with Pedro Marques, Ward has signed the likes of Ifeanyi Ndukwe, Mor Talla Ndiaye, Samuel Martinez, Djylian N'Guessan and Lucca Brughmanns.
He has many other players on his radar at a similar age. It's why he invited Sheriff Bah and Musa Jatta on trial from The Gambian academy BST Galaxy.
Liverpool also have a future transfer in place to sign Senegalese winger Sidy Barhama Ndiaye, who will join the club in January 2028 when he celebrates his 18th birthday.
Naturally, the club has an interest in Diego Pelembe, who is an exciting young midfielder currently playing for Mozambique.
There will be new names emerging in the coming months, especially as Liverpool will have a strong presence at the upcoming U17 World Cup in November.
Liverpool ready to make massive Alexis Mac Allister offer
Of course, Ward's work as sporting director now isn't just solely focused on the recruitment of younger players. He also has to make big decisions about the club's current first-team stars.
Among the most important decisions he has to make is over the future of Alexis Mac Allister. With the Argentine being 28-years-old and having two years left on his contract, it seemed like Liverpool would not extend his contract.
However, there seems to be an interesting development. According to WinWin Liverpool are now ready to open talks with Mac Allister and are preparing to make an offer for him over a new deal.
Now this would be massive. It seems like Ward has made-up his mind and he wants to keep Liverpool's best midfielder of the current season.
There is no denying that's a huge boost for the Reds.
