Liverpool ‘preferred option’ for player

Liverpool-linked Ramsay

According to reports, a move to Liverpool is Calvin Ramsay’s ‘preferred option’ this summer with the Reds looking for a back-up to Trent Alexander-Arnold.

The 18-year-old has progressed through the ranks at Aberdeen. He made his senior debut for them in March 2020.

The right-back was more of a regular in 2021/22 as he played 33 times for the Scottish side across all competitions.

Mane is out of contract next season and Bayern are clearly looking to sign him on a cut-price deal.

Liverpool’s asking price is believed to be £42.5m, meaning the German’s first offer was less than half that amount if the rumoured Champions League-winning add-on was not fulfilled.

According to the Daily Mail, Bayern will come back with a £30m bid, which the Anfield club is expected to turn down.

Mane has scored 120 goals in 269 games for the Reds and has helped them reach three Champions League finals,…
