Liverpool are in talks with Roma for the transfer of a fan favourite at Anfield who is the victim of unfortunate circumstances.<\/p>\n
Liverpool<\/a> and Arne Slot have taken a sledgehammer to the team that lifted the Premier League trophy last term. Much of the club\u2019s business was conducted early in the window, with new starters signed in both full-back positions at No 10 and up front.<\/p>\n The arrival of Milos Kerkez (\u00a340m \u2013 Bournemouth) arose due to the sharp decline of Andy Robertson last term.<\/p>\n The Scot is unquestionably Liverpool\u2019s greatest left-back in the Premier League era, though the 31-year-old\u2019s decline was impossible to ignore.<\/p>\n However, three into one does not go and the odd man out is fan favourite, Kostas Tsimikas<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cKostas Tsimikas exit, expected to accelerate as Liverpool could also open to potential initial loan proposals,\u201d wrote Fabrizio Romano last week.<\/p>\n \u201cThe left back is prepared to leave as Kerkez and Andy Robertson will be the left-backs for Arne Slot.\u201d<\/p>\n Ironically, had Robertson still been the player he once was, Kerkez would not have been signed and Tsimikas would be staying.<\/p>\n Unfortunately for the player referred to among Liverpool fans as the \u2018Greek Scouser\u2019, Tsimikas\u2019 demotion to third place in the pecking order is not a result of his own shortcomings.<\/p>\n And according to the latest from Sky Italia <\/a>and Sky Sports<\/a>, Tsimikas is now the subject of confirmed talks with Roma<\/a>.<\/p>\n Sky Italia reported: \u2018Roma is interested in strengthening their defence, and [director of football Frederic] Massara is targeting left-back Konstantinos Tsimikas as Angelino\u2019s replacement.<\/p>\n \u2018For now, initial discussions with Liverpool are underway. The deal isn\u2019t easy, but the Giallorossi are trying, and the feasibility of the deal will be determined early next (this) week.\u2019<\/p>\n That report was quickly followed by Sky Sports in the UK adding:\u00a0\u2018Roma\u00a0are interested in Liverpool\u2019s\u00a0Kostas Tsimikas\u00a0if they lose left-back Angelino.<\/p>\n \u2018It has been reported the Italian side are looking to sign the 29-year-old on loan with Anass Salah-Eddine also looking for a new club, according to\u00a0Gazzetta dello Sport.<\/p>\n \u2018Tsimikas made nine Premier League starts for the Reds last season, but is yet to feature for the club in 2025\/26.\u2019<\/p>\n Latest Liverpool news \u2013 Alexander Isak\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n It would be remiss to speak about Liverpool right now without touching on the situation involving Alexander Isak.<\/p>\n Liverpool travel to St. James Park to face Newcastle tonight and TEAMtalk understands a bid worth roughly \u00a3130m will be lodged soon after that match<\/a>.<\/p>\n A final outcome \u2013 one way or another \u2013 is expected to quickly follow in the aftermath of tonight\u2019s clash.<\/p>\n
