Liverpool are very much interested in signing Real Madrid star Federico Valverde. The Reds are expected to bid again for the Uruguayan international.
As per a new report via MSN, Liverpool are prepared to pay a signing fee worth around €90M for the Madrid midfielder.
The Uruguayan international has now established himself as a starter and key player for Los Blancos. He has earned an irreplaceable place in Carlo Ancelotti’s plan and has been one of his most used pawns.
The 24-year-old scored 12 goals and 7 assists across all competitions in the 2022-23 season. With this kind of performance, it seems like the Spanish giants are not likely to sell the midfielder.
But in the recent past, he has lost the spark that he brought to the game and to the team. After World Cup, he has not served up to his standards.
Real Madrid President Florentino Perez, last season regarded him as ‘indispensable’ when Liverpool submitted a bid for him. But now circumstances have changed.
The Madrid side have just signed Jude Bellingham for €100M and are also looking forward to signing Kylian Mbappe. The club now is trying to make some money by selling a few players and Valverde might be one of them.
Real Madrid star Valverde to Liverpool: Possible?
The Uruguayan midfielder is a quality box-to-box midfielder who possesses world-class attributes. And Jurgen Klopp‘s guidance and coaching can help him improve even further.
The Merseysiders lost the race to sign English youngster Jude Bellingham this transfer window. However, the 24-year-old can be a worthy alternative to the English midfielder.
Reports have also confirmed that Chelsea are again scouting the market for new signings. Also, Manchester City are looking for a replacement for Ilkay Gundogan. Valverde is also under City’s radar.
The Reds are in some serious need of new signings as they work towards a midfield revamp. The club has already taken the first step and have successfully signed Alexis Mac Allister.
Now the Reds are also in close contact with French duo Khephren Thuram and Manu Kone. If they can pull off the Valverde deal then he can prove to be an instrumental signing for Liverpool.
An ardent football fan and a proud Red. I take immense pleasure in analyzing the intricacies of the game.
