‘He wants to join’ – Klopp given ‘huge chance’ to seal Brazil international midfielder

An opening bid for a Brazilian midfielder who is’sold’ on joining Liverpool is on the way, according to insiders, and the Reds have a’strong chance’ of completing a deal if one thing occurs in the next seven days.

Midfield moves were always going to be the focus of attention at Anfield this summer, and they have.

When the transfer window began, the departures of Fabinho and Jordan Henderson were unexpected. However, when substantial Saudi Arabian bids arrived, Liverpool couldn’t pass up the chance to cash in on two elderly icons.

As a result, despite the signings of Alexis MacAllister and Dominik Szoboszlai, one or two additional signings are possible.

The changes will take place in holding midfield. The Reds currently lack a proven defensive midfielder on their roster. Last season, Stefan Bajcetic, who is only 18 years old and has made fewer than 20 senior appearances, was used as a No. 6 at times.

As a result, Liverpool’s pursuit of Southampton sensation Romeo Lavia has intensified.

Personal terms have already been agreed upon, but the Reds have yet to meet the Saints’ asking price.

The asking price for Southampton is £50 million, and Liverpool’s second offer of £43 million was rejected on Tuesday.

While Liverpool is considering a third bid, Jurgen Klopp’s team is also considering a move for Brazil international Andre.

Liverpool is contemplating a bid for Andre, and the Copa Libertadores results are crucial.

The 22-year-old plays for Fluminense, where he has made over 150 appearances.

Andre is a Brazilian defensive midfielder who made his debut in a 4-2 friendly loss to Senegal in June.

According to Sky Sports, Liverpool made official contact with Fluminense on Tuesday. Andre is’sold on a move to Anfield,’ according to their source, but Fluminense will require convincing.

Andre is a key player for the team, which has advanced to the final stages of the Copa Libertadores. This is South America’s equivalent of the Champions League.

Fluminense will determine whether to move Andre after their Round of 16 game against Argentinos Juniors, according to ESPN Brazil.

The first leg of the tie begins on Tuesday at 11 p.m. UK time. The return leg is set on August 8th.

According to the newspaper, if Fluminense is dropped, there is a’strong likelihood’ that they will contemplate selling Andre. If they make any headway, Andre will be unable to leave, and a relocation may have to wait until at least January.

In any case, Liverpool are thought to be poised to make a £21.5 million opening bid. The Reds are willing to spend up to £25.8 million on the player, confirming their serious interest.

According to ESPN Brazil, Fulham had a £17.2 million proposal for Andre rejected by Fluminense, which explains why Liverpool has agreed on those figures.

Given that Fluminense’s decision appears to be entirely dependent on their Copa Libertadores fate, Liverpool fans will be watching their Round of 16 matches with bated breath.

It’s unknown whether Liverpool will sign both Andre and Lavia, or whether it will just sign one.
