The Reds are enjoying an exciting finish to the summer transfer window with Giorgi Mamardashvili joining the club on Tuesday and Federico Chiesa reportedly undergoing his medial on Thursday.

The window has also been busy in terms of outgoings, with several key players such as Fabio Carvalho, Thiago Alcantara and Joel Matip all departing this summer.

And another player is set. to depart before deadline day on Friday, as Liverpool have agreed a deal to allow him to move this summer.

As reported by David Ornstein, Red Ball Salzburg have agreed a deal with Liverpool to sign midfielder Stefan Bajcetic on loan for the season.

Previous reports had suggested that the deal was already close, but late interest for Barcelona threatened to derail the deal.

But after the La Liga giants failed to finalise a deal, Salzburg have secured the deal and Bajcetic will soon travel to Austria to complete his medical.

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano later confirmed that the reason that the potential deal from Barcelona fell through was due to Financial Fair Play rules within La Liga.

They 19-year-old will reunite with former Liverpool assistant manager Pep Lijnders who took over as Salzburg manager this summer after leaving the Merseyside club alongside Jurgen Klopp.

Bajcetic has made 22 senior appearances for Liverpool, having enjoyed a breakout season with Liverpool in 2022/23

But, from March 2023, a series of injuries have held the Spanish youngster back from getting regular minutes for the Reds over the past 18 months.
