Liverpool are set to agree a loan deal for one of their younger players to make a move to the MLS
Liverpool are back in Champions League action on Wednesday night as they look to seal their spot in the last 16.
The Reds know a win against Qarabag FK at Anfield will put them straight into the knockout stages without having to go through a knock-out play-off next month.
Manager Arne Slot has come under pressure in recent months following a string of poor performances and results.
“I think it's going to be really difficult to quieten the outside noise with the position we are in in the league. Even if we win a few games, every loss or every disappointing result will start the noise coming back again,” said Slot ahead of Wednesday’s Champions League outing.
“That's what you expect if you started the season as we did, not started but at a certain moment with so many losses. But it's impossible to shut down the noise at a club like this if you are not competing for the league. What we have to improve, for me it's so simple.”
While the Reds have been hit with a number of injury problems to leave them short defensively, the club are unlikely to sanction any new signings this late in the transfer window.
However, there are some exits that could still be sanctioned.
According to Sky Sports News, Liverpool goalkeeper Fabian Mrozek is set to join Major League Soccer side FC Cincinnati on a loan deal that could become permanent.
The agreement includes an option to buy for the MLS side outfit, who kick off their 2026 campaign next month.
The 22-year-old has been with Liverpool since 2020, and signed his first professional deal 12 months on from his arrival. He signed a new contract with the Reds in July 2024. He has not yet managed a senior appearance for the club and his future appears to lie away from Merseyside.
He was on loan at Forest Green Rovers for the second half of last season. It is not reported how much the option to buy will be worth to Liverpool, if FC Cincinnati choose to sign him permanently.
