In order to strengthen his midfield this summer, Jurgen Klopp is said to have made an initial offer for Celta Vigo midfielder Gabri Veiga. The Reds are preparing an improved offer for Southampton’s Romeo Lavia after having an initial offer of £34million plus £4m worth of add-ons rejected by the Saints last week.
Lavia continues to be a top priority for Klopp, but he is reportedly also interested in hiring Veiga.
The Spanish publication claim Liverpool intend to strike up a cheaper deal by loaning him back to the La Liga side for the 2023/2024 campaign. PSG and Chelsea are also said to keen on the player and are willing to match his release clause.
However, the possibility of keeping Veiga for another season may be an appealing proposition for Celta Vigo. Club president Carlos Mourino has made it clear he will not let the player go unless his release clause is met.
“We don’t want to sell under any circumstances but they are going to buy [Veiga] from us,” admitted Mourino. “We know some of the offers, we wouldn’t be able to pay him what other teams do.
“Gabri has Celta’s feelings and will always have the doors open but it will depend exclusively on him and what they are offering him is irresistible. He will decide where he wants to go but that club will have to pay the clause.
“Of the top 10 teams in the Premier League, four have asked. For us, it’s not for sale. We refer to the clause. We have nothing to negotiate with anyone. “.
Former Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez was appointed as Celta Vigo’s head coach in June and isn’t planning on doing his old club any favours either. Benitez told Sport last month that he wants Veiga in his side next season.
“We are talking about an important player,” the 63-year-old explained. “Who comes from the academy, and I would be delighted to have him continue with us. ”.
“It would be exciting for everyone, and I will try to improve him as much as possible if he continues with us. I like him a lot, he’s a great player and I’m counting on him.
”.
According to Deportes COPE Galicia, Liverpool have placed a £21.5m bid on the table for Veiga, which is way below his £34.4m release clause.

After the transfer to Saudi Arabia was finalized, Fabinho’s wife sent a heartfelt message to Liverpool.
After five years at Liverpool, Fabinho has left the club to join Al-Ittihad in Saudi Arabia. His wife wrote an emotional farewell letter to the club’s supporters.
Rebeca Tavares, Fabinho’s wife, is upset about his departure from Liverpool for Saudi Arabia.
His time at Liverpool has come to an end as the Brazilian midfielder has finalized a transfer to Saudi Pro League team Al-Ittihad. Since their marriage in 2015, Fabinho and Rebeca have had one child, who was born in 2017.
After the departure was announced, Rebeca posted a sincere message on Instagram. My heart is beating quickly, she said. Since this is life and football, I wasn’t ready to say goodbye (and I still don’t).
“What a beautiful history we created here. What history this “lighthouse” has produced. A red is a red is a red is a red. Anfield, you will be known to my son.
Thank you for your support and love.
ynwa, never.
“.
The success of the team was greatly aided by Fabinho, who moved from Monaco to Liverpool in 2018. He won several trophies with the Reds during his time there, including the Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, Club World Cup, and Super Cup.
From wives of other current and former Liverpool players, Rebeca’s message was warmly received. I love you guys, said Larissa Firmino, the wife of former Reds number nine Roberto Firmino. “You’re our family,” furthered Natalia Becker, who is wed to goalkeeper Alisson Becker. I appreciate you all.
I adore you guys.
“.
This summer, Fabinho and Jordan Henderson both left Liverpool for the Middle East. Steven Gerrard and former Reds captain Henderson got together at Al-Ettifaq.
29-year-old Fabinho said: “Today I leave my home. Wearing this jersey for five years has always been a source of the highest honor and joy. I’ve been welcomed by everyone at Liverpool since the first day. I felt like family in this club because of what I observed about the relationships between the patrons.
“With that jersey, I won every title a player could hope for, and in these five years, I grew as a player and a man. I won the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, Carabao Cup, and the World Cup because of Liverpool. I was able to enter a stadium holding my son in my arms because of Liverpool, which was a dream come true for me.
“I played in Anfield, the best stadium in the world with the best atmosphere, all thanks to Liverpool. The biggest game of my life, the comeback victory over Barcelona, was made possible by Liverpool, and it was only possible because of Anfield. I will never forget that specific moment. I adore what this group of people stands for in the club.
“I’ve always been impressed by the club and the fans’ love affair. And I can confidently state that the song “You’ll never walk alone,” performed by our supporters after that game, was the most pivotal moment in my time with Liverpool. I genuinely love this club, and I say that with joy. We are grateful for everything we have experienced together, Reds. You’ll never walk by yourself. “.
