Liverpool is still looking to strengthen their midfield in the coming summer.
The Reds need more bodies through the door because they recently sold Jordan Henderson and Fabinho.
Romeo Lavia is a big target for the Merseyside club, as many are aware, but Melissa Reddy of Sky Sports reports that Liverpool are also interested in another youngster.
Indeed, it appears that the Reds are seriously considering Fluminense midfielder Andre.
Reddy claims that a £20 million transfer has been negotiated, and the player is convinced that he will be moving to Anfield this summer.
Andre left Liverpool.
Reddy revealed what she is aware of Andre.
“The club were interested in Andre when he received a Brazil hat. Andre is set on moving to Anfield, despite Fluminense’s reluctance to allow him leave this summer, Reddy reported.
“A fee of around £20 million has been proposed.
Southampton turned down Liverpool’s latest bid for Romeo Lavia on Tuesday, and Liverpool will keep looking into other possibilities if the Belgian’s £50 million price tag is not lowered.
In a perfect world, Jurgen Klopp would bring in two new midfielders and a defender before the transfer market closed.
The intriguing Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai may be the best additions Liverpool makes this summer, but if the transaction goes through, Andre must be regarded as the most interesting.
It’s great when a young Brazilian player joins the Premier League, but a £20 million midfielder joining Liverpool is even more intriguing.
The Reds don’t just sign guys for show, so if they’re interested in Andre, you can rest assured that he’s a great player.
This is undoubtedly one to watch.
