Liverpool See Second Improved Bid for Yankuba Minteh Turned Down as Brighton Set Demands: Reports

Liverpool have a verbal agreement with Yankuba Minteh, but Brighton rejected a second £60 million offer and the club may look elsewhere.

  • On Friday, Liverpool intensified their pursuit of Brighton winger Yankuba Minteh with a second bid of £60 million, though the Seagulls rejected the offer. The 22-year-old has given the green light to join the project.
  • Brighton turned down an initial £50 million offer on Thursday, forcing Liverpool head coach Andoni Iraola to seek fresh attacking options. The manager prioritized adding wingers to strengthen his squad.
  • Should the move for Minteh fail, Liverpool have inquired about Real Madrid forward Endrick, a 20-year-old Brazil international who spent last term on loan at Lyon.
  • With just over one week until the September 1 transfer deadline, Liverpool remains active in the market. The club faces mounting pressure to finalize squad adjustments before the window closes.
  • Competitive pressure for the 2026/27 season is driving other Premier League clubs to complete their business as well. Teams across Europe recognize the need for additional arrivals to remain competitive before the market closes.
