Liverpool interested in Brighton winger Minteh

Liverpool's interest in Brighton's winger Yankuba Minteh has been rebuffed in a £50m bid. The 22-year-old Gambian has contributed 10 goals and nine assists in 73 matches for Brighton, having arrived from Newcastle for £30m in 2024. Currently, Minteh is recuperating from a leg injury he picked up in a friendly against Roma earlier this month.

Liverpool's manager Andoni Iraola aims to bolster his wide attacking options following Mohamed Salah's departure. So far this summer, Liverpool have secured Victor Munoz from Osasuna for £34m, a player capable of playing as a winger or in central areas. Paris St-Germain's Bradley Barcola remains a target for Liverpool, but the two clubs remain divided on the forward's value, with PSG demanding around £145m compared to Liverpool's more flexible £100m offer.
