Liverpool vying to sign £101 million player following Diogo Jota’s advice

Liverpool are set to make a move for a £101 million player after Diogo Jota’s recommendation.

Fenway Sports Group (FSG) appears to be willing to spend substantially and back Arne Slot as the Dutchman looks to take up where Jurgen Klopp left off at Anfield, with speculations that a bid for Real Madrid No. 11 Rodrygo has also been filed.

According to sources in Portugal, Liverpool is considering signing a young central midfielder.

Liverpool needs Joao Neves.

According to Correio da Manha, Liverpool wants to sign Benfica No.87 Joao Neves and has even designated the Portugal international as a priority target.

According to the Portuguese news agency, Liverpool has already done extensive research on the 19-year-old and has scouted him numerous times.

According to Correio da Manha, the Reds have also spoken with Jota, who plays with Neves for Portugal, and plan to contact Benfica in the coming days.

Liverpool have already had one successful negotiation with the Portuguese giants, signing Darwin Nunez from Benfica for £85 million in June 2022.

However, Neves is not anticipated to come cheap, with Benfica directing the many interested parties to the teenager’s €120 million (£101 million) release clause.

Last season, the Tavira-born wonderkid made 55 appearances across all competitions, scoring three goals and assisting twice.

Michael Edwards has a cheaper option.

Liverpool has been no stranger to shopping in Portugal in recent years, having signed both the aforementioned Nunez and Luis Diaz from the Primeira Liga.

If a deal to recruit Neves fails, there appears to be another midfielder in Portugal’s top division to whom Michael Edwards, Anfield’s CEO of Football, may turn.

According to Rudy Galetti, Liverpool is interested in Porto’s No.22 Alan Varela, who also plays central midfield.

The Argentina international’s contract includes a release clause that allows him to be signed for £60 million.

Keep a watch on Liverpool’s advancements, as one of the Primeira Liga’s greatest midfielders might be joining the club this summer.
