Liverpool are reportedly preparing an opening offer to sign Romeo Lavia, with the Southampton midfielder the Reds’ newest top priority in the transfer market.
According to TalkSport, the Anfield side are making moves to launch a bid for the Belgian international, with the Saints wanting as much as £50m for Lavia after establishing himself in the Premier League last season as one of the country’s most exciting talents.
Having signed Dominik Szoboszlai this weekend and landed Alexis Mac Allister last month, Lavia could complete Liverpool’s midfield rebuild with the Merseyside giants now readying their first bid to sign the midfielder, who would be quite the addition for Jurgen Klopp’s side.
Lauded as a ‘phenomenal’ talent by Total Football Analysis, Lavia would be an excellent long-term option for Liverpool as well as the perfect player to potentially build the midfield around in the years to come, with the Southampton man’s potential near-limitless.
