Liverpool plans £70m to £80m bid for Yankuba Minteh this summer
Summary

Liverpool intends to submit a bid in the range of £70 million to £80 million for Yankuba Minteh, the Brighton forward, within the next two weeks. The club is looking for a successor to Mohamed Salah, who recently left after an early contract termination. With Yan Diomande opting for a move to Paris Saint-Germain, Liverpool's options have narrowed. Minteh, who has shown promise playing in the Eredivisie and now at Brighton, is viewed as a key future asset, with the Seagulls valuing him at a similar level to Anthony Gordon's recent transfer. The Merseysiders are actively pursuing forward reinforcements amid a challenging transfer window.
