Liverpool could be facing difficulties in their pursuit of PSV Eindhoven star Johan Bakayoko, with Newcastle and Arsenal also showing interest. Despite rumors linking Bakayoko with a move to Anfield, his agent has confirmed he will not be leaving PSV this season. Meanwhile, Liverpool's interest in Napoli forward Khvicha Kvaratskhelia continues, although a transfer appears unlikely in January.
Liverpool have a few weeks to complete any transfer business before the January window closes for another year. The Reds have already been credited with an interest in several potential new signings that could all move to Anfield in the first month of 2025. Arne Slot's side are currently at the top of the Premier League and have a six-point lead over second-placed Arsenal, with a game in hand.
Reports in recent months have linked the Reds with a move for the Belgium international, although they may face increased competition for his signature. According to the Sunday Mirror, Newcastle and Arsenal are both interested in signing Bakayoko. However, the 21-year-old's agent, Gerard Witters, has issued a statement confirming that a move for the forward during the January window is not expected to happen.
