Liverpool have agreed a loan for Ronald Araújo from Barcelona, with a non-mandatory option in 2027, as defensive cover amid injuries. Iraola has also given an update on Jérémy Jacquet and Curtis Jones after Liverpool's 3-2 defeat to Monaco at Anfield.

Liverpool lead talks for Bradley Barcola but Arsenal are ready to move, with PSG's £128m-£145m valuation a hurdle. The Reds also want £70m to consider selling Cody Gakpo.

Liverpool's 3-2 defeat by Monaco raises questions over two players, while one revitalised Reds star is seen as unsellable before the Premier League start.

Liverpool want £34m for Curtis Jones, leaving Inter short of their valuation. Iraola's worries grew after Monaco came from 2-0 down to win 3-2 at Anfield.

Former Liverpool forward Takumi Minamino returned to Anfield with Monaco and made a 'very, very emotional' admission.

Monaco rejected Crystal Palace's €50m bid for Lamine Camara and want at least €60m. Liverpool are monitoring the midfielder after he impressed in Sunday's 3-2 friendly win.

Andoni Iraola gives a Liverpool injury update and explains his plan for Jérémy Jacquet's debut, with Curtis Jones also discussed.

Liverpool are close to a £1.35bn sale of a 30% stake, with FSG in advanced talks with a consortium led by Amit Bhatia and including Jeff Bezos and Eduardo Saverin.

Cody Gakpo, Jeremie Frimpong, Federico Chiesa, Alexis Mac Allister and Curtis Jones face uncertain Liverpool futures amid Iraola's reshaping and added competition.

Sheffield Wednesday are making a concerted effort to sign Liverpool left-back Calum Scanlon on loan, with Cardiff City also interested after his pre-season displays.

Liverpool have shown Iraola's intense style in pre-season, winning two and losing two after surrendering 2-goal leads. The Reds are averaging 60.6% possession.

Iraola said Liverpool 'cannot sustain their level' after a second pre-season collapse, as Monaco came from 2-0 down to win 3-2 at Anfield.

Liverpool's 3-2 loss to Monaco underlined squad gaps despite Ronald Araújo's arrival. The Reds are linked with Bradley Barcola, Ibrahim Mbaye and a holding midfielder.

Liverpool's hopes of signing Antonio Nusa may have dimmed after RB Leipzig's move for Fisnik Asllani collapsed, with Bradley Barcola and Ibrahim Mbaye still priorities.

Liverpool are reportedly among the clubs tracking AC Milan defender Fikayo Tomori as Iraola seeks defensive cover, with Newcastle and Coventry also in the race.

Van Dijk called Ifeanyi Ndukwe a 'big talent' and 'real prospect', but Liverpool must send the 18-year-old centre-back on loan after he missed out on a UK work permit.

Liverpool have reached an agreement to sign Ronald Araújo from Barcelona on loan, with a non-mandatory €55m option in June 2027. The Reds will cover his full salary as defensive cover amid injuries.

The piece offers no Liverpool-specific detail beyond the title, which indicates when Liverpool will enter the Carabao Cup draw alongside other Premier League clubs.

PSG are in the final stages of signing Ferran Torres, a move that could aid Liverpool's push for Ibrahim Mbaye, though any deal remains uncertain as the window runs down.

Van Dijk said Liverpool are in 'transition' after defeat to Monaco, with Iraola replacing Slot and major squad changes leaving 'a lot of work still to be done'.
