It's official, African midfield sensation spotted at Liverpool training centre
It's official, African midfield sensation spotted at Liverpool training centre An African midfield sensation and an exciting attacker have both been spotted at Liverpool's training centre. We could be about to embark on one of the craziest last few days of the summer window that the Reds have ever witnessed in the entire history of the club. There's a lot of speculation at the moment and there could be a fair few new faces at Anfield before the window shuts close. What we know for sure is that Bradley Barcola is going to be a Liverpool player, barring any hiccups. An agreement has been struck and he will be heading to Merseyside to undergo a medical and sign his contract with the Reds. But beyond Barcola, Liverpool are still on the hunt for another winger and potentially a midfielder as well. We know that so far attempts have been made to sign Yankuba Minteh from Brighton and Ismaila Sarr from Crystal Palace. Ibrahim Mbaye is also on Liverpool's radar. Liverpool lost Mo Salah last summer and naturally they need a player who prefers to play on the right wing. Minteh and Mbaye make a lot of sense in this regard. Sure, they are nowhere near Salah's levels. But they are very talented players with speed and directness which is exactly what Andoni Iraola's side needs. Richard Hughes' plans for the end of the transfer window The club's sporting director is probably entering the final few days of his time with the Reds. Hughes will only be judged on the success of his work in the next few years. Right now, he is facing a lot of criticism, but with time, if the players he signs start performing to the levels they can, he might be heralded as a genius. The last few days of the window will go a long way in determining how Hughes' time will be looked at. The plan right now is definitely to pursue a move for Lamine Camara, who is viewed as an ideal candidate for the midfield, where Liverpool lack depth. However, the Reds will also need to offload some players. Harvey Elliott, Federico Chiesa and Wataru Endo are all surplus to requirements. Stefan Bajcetic is also expected to join Celta Vigo, and with Curtis Jones having already departed. So, there is a lot of room for Liverpool to add more midfield depth, and not just strengthen their wide department. The question is who else could come in? African midfield sensation spotted at Liverpool Over the last year or so Liverpool have really broadened their recruitment across the globe. There's a new Global Head of Talent Manager in Matt Newberry and he's been working hard to identify the best young players across the planet. It's how Liverpool recruited Mor Talla Ndiaye, Ifeanyi Ndukwe and Samuel Martinez. Well, now they could be on the verge of even more additions. Earlier this year the president of Gambian side BST Galaxy Steve Trawally met with Liverpool chief scout Barry Hunter, having been invited to the AXA training centre. Now, two of BST Galaxy's biggest teenage sensations have been spotted at Liverpool's training ground. Gambian journalist Foday Manneh has published a picture of Musa Jatta Bajaha and Sheriff Bah in Liverpool colours at the club's training centre. Bah is regarded as a top talent, who turns 18-years-old in September. Anfield Watch understands Musa Jatta Bajaha is even younger and he is regarded as a sensation in Gambia. He's also attracted the interest of other top European clubs. The duo are on trial at Liverpool until the end of next week, and will be taking part of training sessions with the club's academy with the potential of even being involved with the first team.
