Liverpool now plotting surprise move to sign 'amazing' Brazilian star for Iraola - report

All eyes will be on Andoni Iraola's Liverpool this season after the highly-rated Spaniard replaced Arne Slot at the helm.

Following their 2024/25 Premier League title-winning campaign, the Reds endured a nightmare season last term and finished the year in fifth position, 25 points behind newly-crowned champions Arsenal.

Liverpool's struggles resulted in Slot's departure, with Iraola taking on the hotseat after an incredible season where he guided Bournemouth to European qualification for the first time after finishing three points behind the Merseyside club in sixth.

Liverpool splashed the cash in the transfer market 12 months ago and the focus will very much be on them once again as Iraola looks to make an immediate mark at Anfield.

Liverpool are keeping close tabs on Fulham winger Kevin, according to Anfield Watch.

The Reds have already seen some movement in that area of the pitch this summer following Mohamed Salah's departure from the club.

Federico Chiesa could potentially join the Egyptian in heading for pastures new, with the club signing Spanish ace Victor Munoz from Osasuna in a £34.5m deal and having a keen interest in RB Leipzig star Yan Diomande.

Given the need to add to their wide options, Kevin has emerged as a potential addition for Liverpool as they plan for the years ahead.

The Brazilian joined Fulham in a club-record £34.6m deal last September on a long-term contract until the summer of 2030, with the Cottagers having an option to extend it by a further year.

The left-winger finished his first season in west London with three goals and four assists to his name in 31 appearances, notably scoring in a 3-2 defeat against Manchester United in February.

More will be expected of the 23-year-old this season following his first year in England, with Anfield Watch reporting that Liverpool have been watching the player since his move to Fulham to see how he would adapt to the Premier League.

Dario Srna's big Kevin prediction could very well come true if Liverpool make a move for the Fulham star,

Speaking to BBC Sport last September following the Brazilian's move from Shakhtar Donetsk to the Cottagers, Srna, the club's sporting director, stated that the youngster "will move to one of the biggest clubs within the next two years".

"Fulham have an amazing winger, he has amazing skills, is so fast, good one-versus-one, he even defends well," outlined Srna.

"With Marco Silva, for me one of the best coaches in the Premier League, he will continue to develop for sure. I believe Kevin will move to one of the biggest clubs within the next two years."
