Gakpo OUT, Rayan IN?! Liverpool's Huge £130m Transfer Decision

Published 2 months ago
Description

Could Liverpool be preparing for another major shake-up in their attack next summer?

On Newsround with Lewis, Lewis reacts to reports that Liverpool are keeping a close eye on Rayan, a player Andoni Iraola knows well from Bournemouth. With a reported £130m release clause becoming active next summer, Lewis questions whether Liverpool could possibly justify that price — and whether any move would depend on Cody Gakpo leaving Anfield.

Michael Olise also enters the discussion as Lewis assesses whether Liverpool could ever tempt the Bayern star to Anfield, while arguing that strengthening midfield should be a greater priority than spending another enormous fee on an attacker.

There's also discussion surrounding Federico Chiesa's future, with Lewis believing a January departure is becoming increasingly possible given his lack of involvement.

Finally, attention turns to Liverpool's Premier League clash with Fulham as Lewis picks his starting XI, explains why Ronald Araujo should keep his place and calls the fixture a must-win for Iraola's side.
