Liverpool's efforts to bolster their midfield with AC Milan's impressive player Tijjani Reijnders have encountered an obstacle. Reports suggest that Milan is advancing in discussions to extend the Dutch midfielder's contract. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano disclosed that the Italian club is negotiating a deal that could secure Reijnders' future at San Siro, thus complicating Liverpool's plans. This extended deal would strengthen Reijnders' commitment to San Siro and make any potential transfer more difficult.

Liverpool are also interested in Tijjani Reijnders and might propose a swap deal involving their new signing Federico Chiesa to acquire Reijnders. This move could potentially put Liverpool in a favorable position if AC Milan decides to consider the offer.

Liverpool is interested in Tijjani Reijnders to strategically reinforce their midfield. The addition of Reijnders would complement Ryan Gravenberch, helping to keep players fresh during critical stages of the season. Coach Arne Slot is exploring options to add more balance and control in the midfield.
