Liverpool beat Atletico Madrid to sign the £43 million star, and the deal is close.

Romeo Lavia, a Belgian international who is very popular right now, has been closely associated with Liverpool this summer.

The Reds and Chelsea have been pursuing him aggressively, but reports out of Spain suggest that top La Liga clubs have also shown an interest in the player.

Sport reported earlier this month that Barcelona tried to sign the talented 19-year-old holding midfielder but were unable to pay his high asking price.

Romeo Lavia is reportedly being pursued by both Liverpool and Atletico Madrid at the moment, but Liverpool moved quickly and he is almost certainly moving to Anfield, according to a Spanish source, Nacional.

The Southampton star can play for the Rojiblancos in the Champions League; however, the Reds will only compete in the Europa League the following year.

However, the Catalan outlet claims that the young playbreaker chose to work with Jurgen Klopp’s team because he wants to remain in the UK.

Liverpool has already proposed paying the Saints 50 million euros (roughly £43 million) for their prized asset.

So, completion of the move is only a matter of time. As far as we are aware, Lavia has already consented to personal terms with the Merseysiders (Football Insider).

The young player has only played in one senior Belgian international match and has only completed one full season of top-flight football.

Do you believe Romeo Lavia has what it takes to succeed seasoned players like Henderson and Fabinho at Anfield?

Following the signing of Jürgen Klopp’s new contract, Liverpool is prepared to complete two additional transfers.

Media digest: As Jürgen Klopp reorganizes the team, Liverpool is on track to complete two pending transfers. A preseason star is in line to sign a new contract.

Liverpool starlet signs new contract.

Winners and losers from Liverpool’s preseason preparations have begun to stand out after two games.
There is undoubtedly much to think about for Jürgen Klopp.

Darwin Nez, for example, is figuratively banging on the manager’s door after finding the net three times in his first two outings. However, Cody Gakpo, a potential challenger for the number nine position, has also scored, and Klopp will have been pleased with the Dutchman’s performance in that position.

Conor Bradley, however, ranks among the biggest winners. He has demonstrated to Klopp that he can be a capable replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold in the “hybrid” role that was introduced late last season, possibly even paving the way for the number 66 to move permanently into the middle at some point.

Liverpool will now recognize his advancement. Bradley is soon to sign a new three-year contract at Anfield, according to The Athletic, which will also reflect his excellent season on loan at Bolton, where he was named Player of the Season.

That occurs despite the Northern Ireland international receiving transfer interest from the Premier League and the Championship. Bradley has been left out of the group that is traveling to Singapore, despite the fact that Liverpool is clearly committed to keeping him long-term.

Two deals get closer.

With one incoming and one outgoing deal on the table, Liverpool appears set to put two transfer sagas to rest soon. Both Fabinho and Roméo Lavia’s transactions have advanced to this point.

The Athletic reports that after an opening offer was turned down and negotiations are still ongoing, there is an “increasing likelihood” that a deal will be reached for Lavia. Liverpool might use add-ons in a second transfer offer to partially approach Southampton’s asking price.

Personal terms “will not be an issue” should the two clubs settle on a fee. Lavia is also prepared to have a medical exam, according to Sacha Tovalieri. Chelsea is still interested, but it appears as though this one might actually happen.

Regarding Fabinho, Paul Joyce acknowledged on Twitter that there is a “renewed expectation” that he will depart for Al-Ittihad after a first breakdown in negotiations has been overcome. The Brazilian is not anticipated to travel to Singapore with his Liverpool teammates, according to a later update, which confirmed the Saudi side is “progressing” in the deal and that all parties are committed to seeing it through.
