The player is now ‘one step closer’ to joining Liverpool – the ‘agreement is being finalized,’ and the deal is nearing the ‘final phase.’

Monday may have been a quiet day for Liverpool fans, but it appears that things are about to get very exciting very soon

According to Foot Mercato, who has an exclusive piece suggesting that Roméo Lavia is now ‘one step away’ from signing with the Reds.

It should be noted that the Southampton midfielder has already been the subject of an offer from Liverpool, which the Saints turned down, but the second one will be the right one.

The Anfield club remain ‘in pole position’ to sign the Belgium international from the south of England, despite competition from elsewhere, and they are close to acquiring him. In fact, Foot Mercato report that ‘an agreement is being finalised’ between all parties involved in the transfer, and all that remains is ‘an agreement between the two clubs’ for the transfer to go through.

According to Foot Mercato, ‘an agreement is being concluded’ between all parties involved in the transfer, and all that remains is ‘an agreement between the two clubs’ for the deal to be completed.

The transaction is now at its ‘final stages,’ and the process is expected to cost Liverpool ‘about €50 million,’ which will be extremely welcome money for Southampton.

Despite his young age, the 19-year-old was a fixture for the now-Champions League team last season, appearing in 34 games across all competitions and recording one goal, one assist, and ten yellow cards.
