Liverpool have not made a first-team signing in the opening three weeks of the 2026 January transfer window.
After previous links to Anfield, Antoine Semenyo and Marc Guehi have moved to Manchester City instead this month.
Another potential target, Jeremy Jacquet, is now wanted by Chelsea after Liverpool scouted the defender.

Furthermore, while anything could happen before the deadline on February 2, it has been suggested that it will be a quiet transfer window at Anfield this month.
Though that may well be the case based on the way FSG tend to operate in the winter market, reports in South America are now strongly linking Liverpool with a midfielder.
Liverpool plan offer for Andre
As expected, much of the talk this winter has been around signing a new centre-back due to the Guehi links and lack of depth in that position.
But we have previously seen that Liverpool have looked at midfielders, including Kees Smit of AZ Alkmaar.

Now, Brazilian outlet Rti Esporte are saying that the Premier League champions are planning an offer for Wolverhampton Wanderers’ ace Andre.
They claim Wolves would want around £26.1m for him: “Liverpool has already shown interest in the player and continues to monitor André’s statistics.
“Regardless of Wolverhampton’s relegation, Liverpool intends to make an official offer for the player. It is expected that Wolves will not accept negotiating Andre for less than 30 million euros.”

Andre stands out despite Wolves’ struggles
The 24-year-old made the move to the Midlands in 2024 from Brazilian side Fluminense.
Wolves have since struggled for form during that time, especially in 2025/26, where they have won just one league match.
However, the South American star has still been able to showcase his quality at times, with former player Dave Edwards calling Andre ‘indispensable’ in March 2025.
As per Wolves’ official website, he said: “He’s become indispensable to Wolves.
“When he signed, we had a lot of central midfielders, so we were wondering how he would fit in, and maybe we struggled to find the right position for him, but you can see now the price we paid for him, it’s an absolute bargain.”
Andre has made 21 Premier League appearances so far this term and was called up to the Brazilian national team in October 2025.
