Liverpool to Only Pursue Tottenham Target as Florian Wirtz Backup Amid PSG Exit

On Saturday, Football Insider reported, citing sources, that Liverpool could pursue a £19 million move for Cherki. However, the Lyon midfielder is not among their top targets and would only come into serious consideration if they fail to land Bayer Leverkusen’s Florian Wirtz.

Meanwhile, Manchester United, Tottenham and Aston Villa are showing stronger interest in bringing Cherki to the Premier League, with Borussia Dortmund and AC Milan also keeping tabs on his situation.

Sky Sports Germany’s Florian Plettenberg reports that Manchester United have entered the race for Rayan Cherki. As for Liverpool, Cherki is not currently a priority and isn’t considered a hot topic within the club. Their focus for that position remains firmly on Florian Wirtz.

Recently, Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano says there have been plenty of talks about PSG going after Cherki, but for now, they’re not planning to make a move.
