Liverpool have been rather quiet in the transfer window this summer, with the Reds yet to make a major sale nor complete a big incoming.

The Anfield side have been linked with plenty of top players in recent weeks, with Liverpool seeing a move for Martin Zubimendi collapse due to the midfielder opting to remain with Real Sociedad for another year.

With Liverpool now pushing to sign Giorgi Mamardashvili, the final two weeks of the transfer window will be frantic for the Reds, who could add one or two new players to their squad before the market closes on August 30th.

And Liverpool have now set an asking price for one of their senior players to leave.

Liverpool set £34m asking price for Joe Gomez

According to CaughtOffside, Liverpool are open to selling Joe Gomez this summer for as much as £34m, with Aston Villa and Newcastle United open to signing the England international.

News broke yesterday that Gomez had been dropped from Liverpool’s squad to face Ipswich Town in order for the centre-back to focus on a potential transfer away from Anfield this summer.

With Trent Alexander-Arnold hailing Gomez as ‘exceptional last season, it’s clear to see why the defender is ready to depart Liverpool this summer having played over 50 games in all competitions under Jurgen Klopp last term.

And for £34m, a lot of Premier League clubs could be interested in signing Gomez, who for many teams will be willing to take a punt on the 27-year-old defender with Liverpool open to selling.

Liverpool could secure a huge profit for Gomez this summer

With Gomez missing out on a £45m move to Newcastle already this summer, there’s a real chance that the defender could finally secure a move away from Merseyside in the final two weeks of the window.

And for the Reds, they can secure a huge profit for Gomez if a big bid was to be made for the former Charlton Athletic star in the coming days, who joined for just £2m under Brendan Rodgers.

Indeed, Gomez showed last season that he is ready to be a starter for a top Premier League side, and Liverpool should be doing all they can to ensure that the defender leaves this summer on a permanent basis.
