The Athletic: Liverpool also interested in Manu Kone

The transfer market has just concluded, but the rumors don’t seem to have died down.

Indeed, after remaining under Gasperini, who strongly supported the youngster’s stay despite negotiations already underway between Chelsea and Roma, Roma midfielder Manu Koné has once again found himself in the sights of a Premier League club.

This time, however, it’s Iraola’s Liverpool who are interested in the Frenchman.

The midfielder’s physical and technical skills reflect the characteristics sought by the English club, which, according to The Athletic, could capitalize on Roma’s need to raise money as early as the January transfer window.
