Giovanni Leoni, an 18-year-old defender from Parma, is considered a top talent for the future. The young Italian, who was a breakthrough star in Serie A last season, has been on Liverpool's shortlist since July. While there has been no official bid yet, reports indicate Leoni would be open to a move to Anfield, with the club now "starting to think about signing him."
Meanwhile, talks are ongoing for Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi. The 25-year-old is in the final year of his contract and has shown no interest in signing a new deal with the Eagles, which could force their hand to sell rather than lose him on a free transfer next summer. Liverpool is reportedly advancing in talks for a deal worth around £35 million.
The club's strategy appears to be flexible, with sources suggesting that signing both players is a possibility, as they are not necessarily alternatives to each other. Guehi would offer a more immediate, experienced solution, while Leoni represents a long-term investment.
