Liverpool in line for record forward deal after president's green light | OneFootball

Liverpool are in line for a record deal after a club president admitted a sale is now probable.

FC Midtjylland president Claus Steinlein says a 'Danish record sale' is likely as his club prepare to move on some of their biggest stars, per Sport Witness. It's a situation that will almost certainly involve Liverpool.

La Tercera reports that Dario Osorio is likely to be one of those moved on. The forward has been linked with a move to Anfield for years now - could this finally be the year?

In all, three stars are expected to be in line for this record sale. Osorio, Franculino Djú and Aral Şimşir have their suitors and Liverpool reportedly scouted the club twice earlier this season.

It seems they certainly have their eyes on a potential deal here. The current Danish transfer record stands at £21m, so at least one of those sales are expected to eclipse that.

Dario Osoria: Situation Summary

Strategic Contract and Valuation

Midtjylland recently extended Osorio’s contract until June 2030, significantly strengthening their negotiating position. Club president Claus Steinlein has publicly stated his expectation for a record sale from the Superliga this summer, aiming to surpass the current €24 million benchmark. Liverpool and Arsenal are reportedly monitoring the 22-year-old winger closely, with scouts recently attending Midtjylland's Europa League fixtures.

Performance and Key Stats

During the 2025/26 campaign, the Chilean international has recorded 4 goals and 6 assists in 19 Superliga appearances. His European impact is also notable, contributing 3 assists in 7 Europa League matches. Clocked at a top speed of 35.28 km/h, Osorio’s athleticism and creative output from the right flank have made him one of the most scouted young talents in Europe. He is expected to start in the Europa League round-of-16 first leg against Nottingham Forest on 12 March.
