Liverpool aim to sign Manu Kone from AS Roma this summer

Liverpool is reportedly closer to signing Manu Kone from AS Roma following the extension of Lorenzo Pellegrini's contract. This update may facilitate Kone's departure, as Pellegrini's new deal ensures Roma has a viable replacement. Kone, valued at around €50 million, was a key player for Roma last season. Liverpool continues to seek improvements across their squad after a disappointing last campaign, particularly in the attacking and midfield areas. Time is running out as the summer transfer window nears its close.
