I don't think it's unreasonable for us to be negotiating several possibilities at once - there are quite a few hours in a day.
Maybe the Marmalade one has been straightforward enough for us to hear about it and there's little or no intrigue going on.
Do we need him? Don't know, but it does suggest that one of the top two keepers are perhaps looking to leave - in which case it could be a more important signing than it appears.
Tbh, it seems that almost every summer we see a lot of frustration and dissatisfaction from fans over our transfer policy. It happened a lot under Klopp as well, the only major difference this time is the number of out-goings. Perhaps Slot and co think we just have too many that aren't going to get much, if any, playing time. The only nagging concern I have is that he might underestimate the pressure of the PL and the number of likely injuries. Then again, he isn't making those decisions by himself, and others who are involved are experienced in this league so you'd think it's something they'd be well aware of.
