Liverpool have reportedly entered discussions with the representatives of a £78 million-rated player, who is also a known transfer target for Arsenal. This development comes as the Reds’ new sporting director, Richard Hughes, intensifies efforts to secure what would be the club’s seventh signing of the summer, following the recent addition of Hugo Ekitike.
According to sources close to the situation, Liverpool are aiming to move quickly to gain the upper hand in the race for the highly-rated star, with Hughes personally driving the negotiations. The identity of the player remains undisclosed in official channels, but the battle between Liverpool and Arsenal could be heating up as both clubs seek to strengthen key areas ahead of the new campaign.
