Barcelona youngster Gavi has made a decision on Liverpool

The 17 year old midfielder has made a name for himself this season at Camp Nou with scintillating displays. A product of the highly famed La Masia, Gavi is a gem in the middle of the pitch.

Gavi’s performances this season have made all of Europe’s top clubs take a keen interest in him. From reports of Chelsea’s interest earlier on to now Liverpool, they’ve all inquired about his situation.

This is all due to a contract renewal that has taken longer than expected to be signed. However, according to Catalan news publication Sport Barcelona are optimistic that Gavi will prioritize Barca’s sporting project over money elsewhere.

Barcelona have Gavi’s new contract almost ready since December. It’s matter of time to complete the proposal and then enter into final details. 🔵🔴 #FCB

The reason for so many clubs trying their luck at signing the youngster has obvious reasons. The youngster only has 1 year left on his contract and an affordable release clause of £40 million.

Nevertheless, it does seem that the La Masia midfielder will opt to stay under Xavi’s Barca than move somewhere else.

Another Barcelona talent, other than Gavi, Liverpool have scouted is Ronald Araujo, who has cemented himself as one of the best defenders in Spain.

Xavi recently said this about the duo’s contract negotiations: “They are very important. The club cannot allow either of them to leave.

“They are transcendent footballers. I think their renewals are a matter of time. I want to think that the two of them will stay and reach an agreement with the club. I’m optimistic.”

Liverpool lead the pack for Torino defender Bremer’s signature

Liverpool have shown interest in Torino’s center-back Gleison Bremer. However, they will have to compete with Premier League rivals Arsenal to woo him over to Anfield.

The Reds will have to pay a sum of around £25 million this summer, if they want him, according to Tuttojuve. Other English clubs such as Spurs and Man City are also reportedly interested.

Nevertheless, Liverpool are ahead of the rest of the pack when it comes to this deal. Still, the Reds would need a departure to see this deal come to fruition.

Liverpool are keenly observing Real Madrid forward Marco Asensio, according to Spanish media outlet Sport.

Marco Asensio took the world by storm with his stunning long range goals in 2017, especially in Clasicos. However, since then, the Spaniard’s career hasn’t taken off as it was expected to.

The 26 year old only has a season and half one his contract remaining. Contract talks have reportedly broken down, due to the player demanding a pay increase.

The report suggests that there are other big clubs around Europe who’re monitoring this situation. Arsenal are one of the clubs looking to sign him as he’s near the final year of his contract.

Regardless, the Reds are leading the race to sign the forward and are favorites at the moment.

Liverpool will face competition for Asensio

Asensio has an exorbitant release clause of $700 million in his contract. Obviously, Madrid and Liverpool will have to negotiate for the player.

Real Madrid are reportedly fine with letting Asensio leave for a fee of around £50-60 million. The former Mallorca man has scored 7 goals in 20 La Liga outings this season.

The winger recently scored his first hattrick against Mallorca last year

The Royal Whites are said to be proposing a basic wage of four and a half million euros annually, which corresponds to roughly £73,000 per week in football terms.

Possible incentives make it close to £100,000. Although, the forward could surely earn more elsewhere if this figure is genuine.

Liverpool are apparently willing to match Real Madrid’s offer by 50%, giving a package worth around £113k per week. Jürgen Klopp is a ‘huge fan,’ according to reports.

Ancelloti loves Asensio but is unsure if he’s good enough to be a starter

The winger was once touted to be the ‘new’ Messi and, he almost played the part too. However, an ACL injury during July of 2019 saw him stay out for almost the rest of the year.

He came back for just the very end part of the season, but was largely a former shadow of his own talent and abilities.

Nevertheless, he has since bounced from that setback and is starting to recover his old form. Asensio’s form under manager Carlo Ancelloti has also made clubs such Liverpool take notice.

Borussia Dortmund are reportedly unwilling to pay the asking price for Liverpool target Karim Adeyemi. The striker from Salzburg was on his way to the Bundesliga.

Karim Adeyemi’s excellent displays at RB Salzburg have wowed numerous clubs around Europe. The German international has been linked with a return to Germany, in the last few months.

The Salzburg forward has already made his National team debut

Adeyemi’s move to Dortmund appeared to be a bygone conclusion for months. However, nothing substantial has yet to transpire, which may provide some optimism to rival bidders such as Liverpool.

Best chance for Liverpool to land Adeyemi

Numerous big clubs around Europe have been linked to the youngster, including names like Barca. The Red themselves have kept an eye on the youngster since he was 16 years old.

This might be Liverpool’s best window of opportunity in landing the 20 year old. Since the asking price is not really high, this might be Liverpool’s best shot at landing the young sensation.

The Reds currently have an attack that makes every club jealous, with arguably the best player in the world. However, with Salah and Mane reaching their thirties, and Firmino’s decline, Liverpool have to start searching.

Not to mention, all of them will see their contracts end after next season in 2023. With Jota’s and Luis Diaz’s signings, Jurgen Klopp has already started thinking of the future.

Adeyemi has quickly become one of the hottest attacking prospects in Europe

At just 20 years of age, Karim Adeyemi has shown himself to possess immense talent. The Salzburg attacker boasts great technical ability coupled with frightening pace, everything Liverpool need in an attacker.

Numbers always speak for themselves. The youngster has already scored 18 goals in 31 games this season, as well as 4 assists. Not just this, he has 4 goals in the Champions League in 21/22.

The forward is also very versatile in attack. Capable of playing on either wing, as well as up front, the German can slot in anywhere in attack.
