The Story in 60 Seconds

Liverpool could reportedly revive their interest in Brighton & Hove Albion winger Yankuba Minteh during the January transfer window. The Reds previously failed to secure a permanent transfer for the 22-year-old during the summer window, having walked away due to Brighton's high valuation and a foot injury suffered by the player. Gambian journalist Foday Manneh has confirmed that a winter move remains a strong possibility.

Brighton reportedly rejected summer bids of £50 million and £60 million from Liverpool, holding out for up to £80 million. A potential January move for Minteh may depend on his fitness recovery and whether Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo departs the club during the same window.
