Liverpool have reportedly entered the race for the signature of Romeo Lavia. The player is also open to a move to any Premier League club.

Southampton are also ready to sell him for the right price after their relegation. However, the Reds will have to compete with Arsenal.

LIVERPOOL AND ROMEO LAVIA TRANSFER LINKS FULL STORY

According to transfer expert, Liverpool have asked about the conditions of deal for Romeo Lavia. Hence, it is clear that Jurgen Klopp appreciates the player. However, they have not yet made a bid. They also do not have any agreement on personal terms with the player. Hence, at the moment, the Reds are very early in the possible deal for Lavia.

Liverpool are also aware that they face the competition of Arsenal for Romeo Lavia. Arsenal have also enquired about his availability. However, like the Reds, the Gunners have also not made a bid for the Southampton midfielder. They have also not agreed any personal terms with the midfielder. There is also a possibility that Jurgen Klopp has many midfielders on the list.

JURGEN KLOPP ALSO HAS OTHER MIDFIELDERS ON THE LIST

According to reports, Liverpool are also exploring other midfield options for the summer transfer window. The currently linked players are Khéphren Thuram and Manu Kone. Both the players are currently playing for the French U-21 team in the euros. They also explored signing free agent Youri Tielemans. However, the interest did not make any progress. The Belgian midfielder also ended up signing for Aston Villa.

Hence, it is clear that Liverpool are narrowing down their options from the first day of the window. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has also said that the Reds want more physical midfielder in the side. Hence, a possible signing like Romeo Lavia makes sense. Lavia was one of the few positives for the relegated Southampton side. Southampton want a fee of over 35 million.

Liverpool will surely keep an eye on his situation. However, they need to be aware that Arsenal move very fast in the deals that are in their favour. Hence, they will have to at least make sure that Lavia only prefers joining Arsenal in the summer transfer window.
