Friday, August 15, 2025 - Premier League champions Liverpool have agreed a deal to sign Parma defender, Giovanni Leoni.
An agreement was reached late on Wednesday night, and the
fee for the 18-year-old defender is £26m plus add-ons.
Leoni now has permission to travel to Liverpool to agree
personal terms and undergo a medical, which is expected to begin on Thursday.
Liverpool saw off competition from elite Italian clubs and
Premier League sides, with the player adamant his choice was a move to Arne
Slot's side.
Leoni will also immediately join the first-team set-up for
this season, with any suggestion of a loan move completely ruled out.
Liverpool were targeting reinforcements at centre-back with
Ibrahima Konate entering the final year of his deal at Anfield.
The champions are also in talks for Crystal Palace defender
Marc Guehi and are favourites to sign the England international.
