The Reds were heavily linked with a move for Crystal Palace attacker Ismaila Sarr during the summer transfer window.

Liverpool earmarked the Senegal winger alongside Yankuba Minteh as potential options should Cody Gakpo leave for Manchester City.

The 28-year-old was keen to join the Reds, but Liverpool made no move towards the closing stages of the window as Gakpo remained at the club.

Reports suggest that the Reds could revisit a move for Sarr in the January window, despite the arrival of Bradley Barcola from Paris Saint-Germain for £106m.

Spurs surprised everyone by signing Mykhailo Mudryk from Chelsea in the closing stages of the transfer window.

The attacker has been out of football for two years due to a ban, but Roberto De Zerbi has backed him to shine at Tottenham.

Chelsea included a huge £75m option to buy the Ukrainian winger, and reports suggest that Spurs could be prepared to activate it if he performs to the standards they expect.

It is a massive price tag, and Spurs are only likely to commit to signing him permanently if he proves to be a major success.

Arsenal and Manchester City are keeping an eye on Chelsea winger Pedro Neto for the January transfer window.

The Portuguese winger has made 106 appearances for the Blues, scoring 20 goals, and netted in the 4-3 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion.

According to reports, Arsenal and Manchester City have kept Neto as one of their priority options but they are likely to face competition from Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal.

Neto has a contract at Stamford Bridge until 2031, and any potential suitor will have to pay around £60m-£68m to sign him.
