Liverpool and Chelsea have been pursuing Gabri Veiga for some time and the latest reports indicate the Reds are ready to seal the signing.
According to an exclusive story in The Transfer Room, the Merseysiders are leading the race to lure the young Spaniard out of Celta Vigo.
The source said the Blues have stepped back and are looking at other options to bolster business in the downtown park.
Liverpool are said to be well ahead of all their rivals in the race to attract Veiga, who was very impressive in La Liga last season.
However, the biggest obstacle for the Anfield club would be the €40m (£34.4m) release clause in the midfielder’s contract.
Last week we ran a story through the Madrid outlet, AS, claiming the six-times European champion is ready to trigger his release clause to sign Veiga.
Chelsea have been closely linked with Ecuadorian international and Brighton star Moises Caicedo, who was also wanted by Manchester United this summer (The Times).
Jürgen Klopp must act quickly to attract the 21-year-old, who scored/created regularly for Celta in the 2022/23 season.
The starlet mainly played in midfield, but was also used as number 10 and second striker by the Abanca-Balaidos team.
Do you think Liverpool should offer £34.4m to seal the signing of Gabri Veiga?
