Signing New Players for The Nexf Season
The Premier League season of 2020-2021 just finished with Manchester City as the champions, Liverpool on the third place and qualify for the Champions League in next season. While Chelsea and Man City will fight in final game for the trophy of Champions League this weekend. After that, both team, and for sure, all teams of Premier League will focus on bringing players to strengthen their sides to play in next season. They will try to sign players to fill weak position of their line-ups.
The transfer windows open, then players will come and go. Every team trying to get new players, balancing their teams. The news of selling and buying players would be nice to follow. For Liverpool, I think they will sign defender and striker, and may be midfielder as Wijnaldum will leave the club this season.

And yes, Liverpool is trying to sign Ibrahima Konate from RB Leipzig, the German side. He is a French player and helping Leipzig this season to finish on second place of German League. I think he would be a perfect player to recruit to strengthen defending line of The Reds. We know that Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez just being absent until the end of last season due to injury. We still wait for his fitness. Ozan Kabak was playing well, but sure he need backup. So, Konate would be a great player to sign.
While Manchester City, though they are the winner of the Premier League this season, this rich club will buy more players to strengthen their side. This club is unstoppable to sign players. They are so craving for trophies. They just won to trophies this season, and still have a chance to win treble if Pep Guardiola side win over Chelsea in the final match of The Champions League on the weekend.

It seems Man City will also bring reinforcement for their defending side. According to the news, Pep Guardiola is interested to sign Nuno Mendes from Sporting CP. The Portuguese star would be filling left back side of Man City. Benjamin Mendy is not really fit as he is prone to get injury. Zinchenco is playing well, but he need friend to back up. That’s why Pep Guardiola is trying to find a perfect player for that position, and Nuno Mendes would be a choice.
