Bayern Munich is interested in Liverpool’s goalkeeper Alisson, while Arsenal and Manchester United are looking at Bazoumana Toure.

Bayern Munich Eyeing Liverpool’s Alisson Becker

In a surprising turn of events, Liverpool’s star goalkeeper Alisson Becker has emerged as a potential target for Bayern Munich. Reports suggest that the Bavarian giants are closely monitoring the situation surrounding the Brazilian international, who has been a key figure for the Reds since his arrival.

The 31-year-old shot-stopper has also been linked with a lucrative move to Saudi Arabia, with speculation mounting that a transfer could materialise as early as the end of the current season. According to The Sun, Bayern are particularly interested due to ongoing fitness concerns regarding their first-choice keeper, Manuel Neuer. However, it is believed that securing Alisson’s services would require a significant financial outlay next summer.

Vincent Kompany, the former Burnley manager, is said to be a keen admirer of Alisson from his time in English football and could make a bold move for the goalkeeper at the conclusion of the campaign. Meanwhile, Liverpool appear to be preparing for the possibility of Alisson’s departure, having already secured the signing of Giorgi Mamardashvili from Valencia. The 23-year-old Georgian keeper is set to join the Merseyside club permanently next year.

Premier League Table Not a True Reflection, Says Slot

In other news, the early Premier League table has come under scrutiny, with Slot suggesting it does not provide a realistic view of the competition. As Liverpool currently sit at the top, the dynamics of the league are still very much in flux.

Manchester United and Arsenal Target Young Talent Toure

Meanwhile, Manchester United and Arsenal are reportedly keeping a close eye on young winger Bazoumana Toure. The 18-year-old, who plays for Swedish side Hammarby, has been making waves with his impressive performances on the wing.

The Mirror reports that the Ivorian talent is valued at around £5 million and has made a significant impact in Sweden since his move from ASEC Mimosas in March. Toure, known for his blistering pace, has already netted six goals and provided three assists this season, showcasing his ability to adapt quickly to European football.

Represented by the renowned Unique Sports Group, which boasts high-profile clients like Anthony Gordon and Reece James, Toure has attracted the attention of several clubs. Scouts from Manchester United, Arsenal, Brighton, and Wolves were reportedly in attendance for Hammarby’s recent Allsvenskan clash against Hacken.

Manchester United Seeking Backup for Onana

Lastly, Manchester United are reportedly in the market for a new backup goalkeeper to support first-choice Andre Onana. The Red Devils have set their sights on Sunderland’s Anthony Patterson, who has made a strong impression in the Championship, keeping four clean sheets in just six appearances this season.

According to the Mail, United are keen to bring in a young shot-stopper to serve as understudy to Onana, and 24-year-old Patterson fits the bill perfectly. Former goalkeeper Tony Coton, now United’s keeper scout, is closely monitoring the Black Cats star. With Erik ten Hag firmly backing Onana as his first choice, the future of Altay Bayindir, who has seen limited action, remains uncertain.

As the transfer window approaches, it promises to be an intriguing period for clubs across the Premier League.
