“Manchester United Have Made Contact to Sign Liverpool’s Biggest Transfer Target!” – This Is the Last Thing Liverpool Fans Wanted to Hear Right Now 😖 Arne Slot Reportedly Furious Over Hijack Attempt
In a stunning twist that has set Premier League fans into a frenzy, Manchester United have officially made contact to hijack the signing of Liverpool’s biggest transfer target—and the ripple effects are already being felt across Merseyside.
Sources close to the situation have confirmed that United’s recruitment team reached out to the player’s camp just hours after Liverpool intensified negotiations with the star’s current club. The move is being described as a direct attempt to sabotage Liverpool’s transfer plans under new manager Arne Slot, who had made this particular player his top priority for the summer window.
And make no mistake—Slot is furious.
The Dutch manager, who is already under pressure to rebuild the squad in the post-Jürgen Klopp era, is reportedly “absolutely livid” over United’s aggressive interference in what was supposed to be a done deal. According to club insiders, the player had already given a verbal agreement to Liverpool, and personal terms were nearing completion. That is, until Manchester United swooped in with a bigger financial package and promises of a central role in their new project at Old Trafford.
The player in question—whose identity is being withheld due to ongoing negotiations—is considered one of Europe’s most promising talents and had been tracked by Liverpool’s scouting department for over a year. Fans were already celebrating his imminent arrival when the bombshell dropped.
Now, uncertainty clouds the future.
As the transfer saga escalates, Liverpool fans have taken to social media to vent their frustration, accusing United of playing dirty and “stealing Klopp’s legacy targets”. Others fear this might be a repeat of past hijackings—like when Spurs beat them to Luis Díaz until last-minute intervention, or when Chelsea swiped Moisés Caicedo under their noses.
One fan wrote, “This is a complete disaster. First we lose Klopp, now we can’t even secure his top targets. Arne Slot doesn’t deserve this mess!”
Meanwhile, Manchester United supporters are reveling in the drama, hailing the move as “a power play” that signals their return to serious business in the market. Club executives are reportedly confident that their prestige, coupled with the player’s admiration for the Old Trafford legacy, will be enough to turn his head.
This brewing transfer war has the potential to become one of the biggest storylines of the summer window. With both clubs needing reinforcements and battling for supremacy both on and off the pitch, this saga is far from over.
Will the player honor his verbal agreement with Liverpool, or will the lure of United’s ambition and paycheck prove too tempting to resist?
One thing is clear: The rivalry between Liverpool and Manchester United is no longer just about matchdays—it’s now a full-blown war
in the transfer market.
