Moran, who has captained his national team multiple times, now seems ready to embrace a new opportunity in the North East—despite growing up as a Liverpool supporter.

The transfer has been hailed as a “major coup” by Lewis Bower, a respected independent analyst of Liverpool’s Academy. Bower praised the young talent as a “versatile and expansive passer” capable of playing both in defense and midfield.

While it’s disappointing to see such a promising player depart, the club wishes him nothing but success in his next chapter.

Elsewhere, Arne Slot has been actively reinforcing the senior squad in preparation for the 2025/26 season.

Jeremie Frimpong and Florian Wirtz have both arrived from Bayer Leverkusen, and Milos Kerkez has also joined from Bournemouth after an impressive campaign on the south coast.

It’s unclear what further transfer activity will unfold this summer, but confidence remains high that Liverpool will secure the right deals—both incoming and outgoing.

This comes after a deeply emotional week for the club, following the heartbreaking passing of Diogo Jota. As tributes continue to pour in for Jota and his brother Andre Silva, Liverpool are slowly returning to their rhythm.

Pre-season preparations are now underway, with the Reds set to face Preston on Sunday after resuming training earlier in the week.

Meanwhile, transfer rumors are heating up again. Speculation surrounding Luis Díaz’s future continues to grow, with Bayern Munich reportedly intensifying their pursuit, despite Liverpool’s firm stance that the Colombian is not for sale.

In addition, Rodrygo may be on the move from Real Madrid this summer, possibly giving Liverpool a renewed opportunity to pursue the Brazilian. Marc Guehi also remains linked with a potential switch to Anfield.
