Liverpool’s pursuit of Moises Caicedo has been aided by the midfielder’s unusual change of agent
WHAT’S THE DEAL?
Goal reported that Liverpool are confident Brighton will sell the Ecuador international, who is valued at £50 million
Caicedo has now teamed up with Manuel Sierra and Ali Barat as his new representatives, according to Romana, with the South American considering his future
That certainly sounds like the 21-year-old intends to leave Brighton, in our opinion
Caicedo has started 16 Premier League games for the Seagulls this season, and his performances in the middle of the park have caught the attention of Jürgen Klopp
The Ecuadorian averages 2.9 tackles per game in the Premier League, demonstrating his solid presence ahead of the backline, and he is also a composed figure, with an 88% pass success rate
Liverpool are desperate for midfield reinforcements amid a midfield crisis, and doubts about finishing in the top four have grown following Monday’s 3-1 loss to Brentford
Caicedo, surprisingly, added fuel to the fire by liking an Instagram post announcing Cody Gakpo’s signing with Liverpool, which got fans talking
LIVERPOOL CONTENTS FOR CAICEDO
If Liverpool is to sign Caicedo, they appear to need to outbid Chelsea
CBS Sports’ Ben Jacobs believes the Blues will make an offer to Brighton for their industrial No.25 this month, and are willing to pay the asking price
Liverpool cannot afford to miss out on Caicedo, who would be a fantastic solution to many of their midfield issues
As a result, a tense transfer battle with Chelsea awaits – keep an eye on this situation, as there is still plenty of time left in the January transfer window
