According to the Argentine newspaper 'El Intransigente', FC Liverpool is interested in acquiring Exequiel Palacios from Bayer Leverkusen. Palacios, who joined Leverkusen from River Plate in 2020 for 17 million Euro, has developed significantly over four years and won two titles. He is under contract with Leverkusen until 2028. Liverpool is seeking squad reinforcements after a rather mediocre season. However, Bayer Leverkusen would only consider selling him for a 'considerable offer'.

Exequiel Palacios was a legitimate target for Liverpool across previous windows. However, he signed a new contract with Bayer Leverkusen last summer until 2028.
