Liverpool ‘space opens’ after De Bruyne transfer development at Anfield
Kevin De Bruyne could potentially be on his way to Liverpool after leaving Manchester City at the end of the season.
The Belgium international’s current contract expires at the end of the season, and the Cityzens have opted against extending his stay.
Arne Slot won’t get carried away after winning the Premier League and will want Fenway Sports Group (FSG) to reinforce the Reds in the upcoming transfer window.
De Bruyne has been linked with a move to Anfield as a free agent in the coming weeks, and doors have now opened for his possible arrival.
Mohamed Salah admits Liverpool space open for De Bruyne transfer
Mohamed Salah suggests the Reds have space in their squad to include De Bruyne next summer.
The Egypt international praised the 33-year-old for the impact he’s had in the Premier League, winning six English top-flight titles.

Salah wished the Man City superstar the best for his future, and joked there was space available at Anfield for the midfielder.
Speaking on Sky Sports Premier League (16 May), the forward said: “I think [De Bruyne] was great for the league and I really wish him the best. And yeah, we have a space for him.
Anfield to embrace De Buyne transfer
If reports are to be believed, De Bruyne has an offer to move to Anfield, and it’ll be interesting to see if the deal actually goes through.
The Reds faithful will want to see FSG back Slot in the upcoming transfer window after a rather disappointing end to their Champions League campaign.
Salah and Virgil van Dijk’s contract extensions will please fans, but there needs to be more investment at the Merseyside outfit, who have only signed Federico Chiesa in the previous two transfer windows.
Liverpool will lose Trent Alexander-Arnold soon, which has left supporters extremely upset.
With the right-back leaving, the Reds are losing not only one of their most influential players but also one of their most creative outlets.
De Bruyne might not be in the prime age of his career, but the midfielder is still one of the best contributors on his day.
As a short-term fix for the Merseyside outfit’s potential issues in the final third next season, the 33-year-old’s signing seems like a no-brainer.
The Belgian national’s situation in the upcoming transfer window will be one to watch.
