Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool are reportedly about to make a bid for Celta de Vigo midfielder Gabri Veiga amid interest from Mauricio Pochettino’s Chelsea and Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.
Real Madrid and Napoli are also claimed to be interested in the 21-year-old Spain Under-21 central midfielder.
Galetti has added that Liverpool are now ready to make a concentre move for Veiga, adding that the youngster has a release clause of €40 million £34.5 million) in his contract.
The journalist wrote: “Understand that #Liverpool are set to make a concrete move for Gabri #Veiga.
“The MF has a release clause (€40m) in the contract with #CeltaVigo.
In our view, Liverpool could be able to sign Gabri Veiga ahead of Manchester City in the summer transfer window.
It seems that while Premier League, FA Cup and UEFA Champions League winners City have shown interest in the 21-year-old, they are not planning to make a bid anytime soon.
Liverpool are.
So, this suggests that the Merseyside club are more determined than City to secure the services of the Celta star.
It is very simple for Liverpool.
The former Premier League and UEFA Champions League winners need to pay the release clause in Veiga’s contract and offer him a salary that he would not be able to refuse.
Liverpool are a massive club and a global brand, and we believe that the youngster would find the prospect of playing for the Reds hugely appealing.
