Liverpool are seeking midfield upgrades this summer, especially in the pivot or holding role, despite a quieter window after spending over £400 million to retain the Premier League title. Arne Slot lost his job after that failed bid, and new signings will be available to incoming boss Andoni Iraola. Reports linked Crystal Palace’s Adam Wharton as a target, but Palace’s qualification for the Europa League after a narrow Conference League final win over Rayo Vallecano strengthens their position. John Textor’s sale of his Eagles stake removes the prior shared-ownership conflict with Olympique Lyon, increasing revenue. Jean-Philippe Mateta is also ahead of Wharton to leave, while Palace’s winter sale of Marc Guehi reduces pressure to sell, potentially forcing Liverpool to miss out or pay a high fee.
