With none of Kerkez, Andy Robertson, or Kostas Tsimikas having shown the kind of positional flexibility that might allow them to fill in elsewhere, that seems one left back too many.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Whether it would be Robertson or Tsimikas heading off in search of a first team role at another club has been a story that\u2019s changed throughout the summer, but with less than a week to go before the transfer window slams shut the consensus now is that it will in fact be Tsimikas who departs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">However, it\u2019s clear the Reds aren\u2019t in a strong position, and most of the chatter this past week has been about a potential loan departure, with Olympiacos, Marseille, and Roma <a href=\"https:\/\/liverpooloffside.sbnation.com\/liverpool-fc-transfer-news\/75081\/liverpool-fc-transfer-news-roma-marseille-olympiacos-want-kostas-tsimikas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the biggest clubs linked<\/a> with Liverpool\u2019s Greek Scouser. Of the three, Roma seems likely to be Tsimikas\u2019 top option.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Liverpool, though, are still hoping to find a suitable suitor willing to do a permanent transfer deal for Tsimikas, which according to <a href=\"https:\/\/gianlucadimarzio.com\/tsimikas-roma-calciomercato-serie-a-news-26-agosto-2025\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reports out of Italy<\/a> this week resulted in them rejecting Roma\u2019s approach\u2014which it\u2019s been previously suggested involved a purchase option, not an obligation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Still, if the chatter is to be believed, this isn\u2019t the end of Roma\u2019s interest. The Serie A side are said to feel confident in their position as Tsimikas\u2019 likely best option, and they believe that if deadline day arrives and a better\u2014and more permanent\u2014alternate isn\u2019t found they will be able to sign him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Following the arrival of Milos Kerkez over the summer, Liverpool find themselves with three left backs.
