Liverpool have been the busiest Premier League club as far as the transfers are concerned having secured more than a few key signings.
However, Reds’ business is not done yet as Brendan Rodgers still looks to amplify the quality of his squad.
The merseysiders lately agreed a new contract with goalkeeper Danny Ward, now it has been confirmed that the youngster has been loaned out to Aberdeen.
Liverpool have been closing in to sign Southampton right back Nathaniel Clyne and as per latest reports, a structured deal has been agreed for the England international to join Anfield.
As per the provided ESPN link, Southampton are in no mood of accepting anything less than 15 million pounds for Clyne and now a certain agreement has been reached where by Saints will get their demand if the player achieves specific objectives with the Reds.
Clyne will be a fantastic addition to Liverpool’s defense and will directly replace Glen Johnson who left the club not so long ago.
As far as the midfield is concerned, Telegraph are reporting that Liverpool deem Kovacic too expensive and have now turned their attention to his team mate Brazilian star Hernanes.
The former Lazio star is a versatile talent who can play as a central as well as attacking midfielder. However, it makes little sense why Liverpool are in for a 30 year old midfielder who is also going to cost a decent sum since Inter paid 14 million pounds to sign him last year.

This to me would signify that the possible “silly” season is about to encompass Liverpool. Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with “bargains”, but let’s have it right. Hernanes may well be a quality player, but especially for someone who plays outside the league, risking a sizeable amount, especially for someone who is in the latter stages of his playing career, makes very little sense. It makes better financial sense to have a bigger outlay and buy someone who has many years to play, to learn, to adapt and to really prove the talent he has rather than to risk decent monies on someone, who might be talented, but is untested in the more physical premier league. Liverpool have experienced this phenomenon before, only to see it “crash and burn and I am struggling to understand why they seem ready to risk it again.
