Liverpool are on course to win the Premier League title, with six points needed from the last six games of the season to secure the championship.

The Reds have been the outright best team in England this campaign, with Mohammed Kudus lauding Liverpool as such after West Ham’s recent loss against the Anfield side over the weekend, where a late Virgil van Dijk header wrapped up all three points for Arne Slot’s men.

With the title all-but wrapped up, attention has already shifted to the transfer window, where Liverpool are expected to be one of the biggest spenders this summer as Slot looks to overhaul his squad ahead of defending the Premier League next season.

And one player who has been a mainstay for the Reds this year is now on the radar for Premier League clubs.

According to Greek publication Sportime, Kostas Tsimikas is wanted by a number of Premier League teams, with the defender allowed to leave this summer as Liverpool look to completely overhaul the left-back position.

Tsimikas was lauded as ‘brilliant’ by Michael Owen earlier this season having enjoyed a great start to life under Slot, yet since then, injuries and inconsistent form have his the Greek international in a big way as the campaign has progressed.

With Tsimikas likely to leave Liverpool this summer, a move to the Premier League would make a lot of sense for the 28-year-old defender, who has shown that he can be a good performer at this level when fully fit.

And for Liverpool, from a financial perspective, selling Tsimikas to a Premier League rival could result in a tidy payday for the Reds, who could receive a good fee for the Greek international if the right suitor comes in for the defender.

Liverpool have had issues at left-back this season, with Tsimikas and Andy Robertson both struggling at different points throughout the campaign to give Slot a real headache with the position despite leading the Premier League title race.

And this summer, overhauling the left-back position is key for Liverpool if they’re to challenge for even more silverware next season, with the Reds clearly having a plan to sign one or even two new players for the role.

Indeed, selling Tsimikas will be key for Liverpool if they’re to refresh their options in the market, and a Premier League club signing the Greek international will be huge for the Reds given the financial opportunity.
