Liverpool could use Caoimhin Kelleher in swap deal to sign £50m star for Arne Slot

By all accounts, Arne Slot will be able to make significant upgrades to his Liverpool squad this summer, a manager who’s on course to win the Premier League after a minimal spend.

Liverpool only recruited Federico Chiesa from Juventus to join their squad immediately last summer, a forward who has made just 12 appearances under Slot in all competitions.

Slot has essentially won the Premier League with the squad he inherited from Jurgen Klopp, a remarkable achievement.

But in order to take his project to the next step, the Dutchman will need one or two players in his image to improve his starting eleven and squad as a whole.

And along with Milos Kerkez, Liverpool are interested in signing Dean Huijsen from Bournemouth, a duo who are captivating attention across Europe right now.

Huijsen only arrived in England last summer, but Bournemouth could already be poised to make a big profit on the Spain international.

That being said, Liverpool might now have a trick up their sleeve when it comes to beating the clubs also interested in Huijsen.

According to Mail Sport, Bournemouth are interested in three Liverpool players right now: Caoimhin Kelleher, Harvey Elliott and Ben Doak.

And whilst there might be some reluctance to lose Elliott at Anfield, Kelleher could be in need of a new challenge.

Alisson has been phenomenal for Slot this season and Liverpool will also welcome Giorgi Mamardashvili to the squad from Valencia this summer as things stand.

Virgil van Dijk commented on Kelleher’s future recently and does feel as if both the goalkeeper and Liverpool might be forced into a decision this summer.

Therefore, perhaps Liverpool might be advised to actually use the Republic of Ireland international in a swap deal to sign Huijsen, whilst also adding some cash.
