Liverpool Newsnow: At the conclusion of the season, Liverpool might potentially recruit Moises Caicedo from Brighton & Hove Albion of the Premier League
Liverpool Newsnow: Liverpool is interested in signing Moises Caicedo after he has shown himself to be a consistent midfielder in the Premier League. The Reds have reportedly made contact over a possible summer transfer, according to the Daily Mirror and Paisley Gates. And the midfielder for Brighton & Hove Albion will set Liverpool back something in the neighbourhood of £75 million.
Besides Joao Palhinha and Declan Rice, two more midfielders who have caught Liverpool’s eye are West Ham United’s captain and Fulham’s star. The Reds have apparently made some undercover inquiries on the English international.
Caicedo, meanwhile, is one of the best young midfielders in Europe and may be a great long-term investment for Liverpool. At the conclusion of the season, Jurgen Klopp must acquire many central midfielders. The Ecuadorian international is a player Liverpool could really benefit from.
Liverpool Newsnow: What’s the matter?
Neither Jordan Henderson nor Fabinho has been performing up to par. Liverpool needs to sign a solid holding midfielder to help the team out. Caicedo has the ability to step into that position and provide Liverpool with some much-needed poise and defensive discipline.
When the summer transfer window opens, it will be intriguing to see whether Liverpool is prepared to pay his rumoured £75 million asking price. Even players like Jude Bellingham have been linked to the Reds. However, Liverpool’s interest in the England international has apparently waned due to the high cost of acquiring his services.
Bellingham would be worth roughly £135 million. This is more than Liverpool is willing to pay for a single player. At that amount, they can afford to buy two midfielders, albeit who they choose is anyone’s guess.
What’s next for Moises Caicedo?
During the January transfer window, Arsenal was said to be interested in signing Caicedo. The player himself expressed a desire to go to the North London club. Whether or when Arsenal makes another bid at the season’s conclusion is something to keep an eye on.
If the deal at the end of the season goes through, the midfielder will be well-established in the Premier League. He could make an instant impact at Anfield. He’s earned a promotion to the next league. Therefore, he will find the offer to play for Liverpool quite alluring. Working with a legendary coach like Klopp will only help him reach his full potential and take his career to the next level.
