Liverpool is preparing a €50 million bid to sign João Pedro from Brighton, identifying the Brazilian forward as a long-term replacement for Darwin Núñez. The Reds are looking to bolster their attacking options ahead of the new season.
Why João Pedro?
- Liverpool’s management is impressed with João Pedro’s versatility, as he can play both as a central striker and on the wings.
- The 22-year-old forward has been a key player for Brighton, showcasing his technical ability and composure in front of goal.
- With Núñez struggling for consistency, Liverpool is keen on adding a more adaptable attacker to their squad.
Brighton’s Stance
- Brighton is known for holding firm on their transfer valuations, having previously negotiated high-profile sales.
- The Seagulls may demand a higher fee, considering Pedro’s potential and his long-term contract.
What’s Next?
- Liverpool is expected to formalize their offer soon.
- Negotiations will depend on Brighton’s willingness to sell and Pedro’s own ambitions.
- If the deal goes through, it could reshape Liverpool’s attacking setup for years to come.
