Liverpool targets Yasin Ayari amid contract talks with Brighton

Liverpool may enhance its midfield this summer, eyeing Yasin Ayari, a 22-year-old midfielder with Brighton. Ayari has emerged as a target after interest in Alexis Mac Allister and Curtis Jones, both nearing contract decisions. Brighton is engaged in negotiations for a new deal with Ayari, who is under contract until 2027. If negotiations falter, a sale could become likely. Liverpool previously acquired Mac Allister from Brighton, suggesting a potential repeat of strategy.
