Newcastle United eye a move for Liverpool target Romeo Lavia
The competition for Southampton midfielder Romeo Lavia is heating up as Liverpool find themselves in a race for the player’s signature. A recent update reveals that Newcastle United are now tracking Lavia as well.
Romeo Lavia‘s performances at Southampton have caught the attention of several top clubs, including Liverpool. The Reds have been closely monitoring the midfielder, with reports suggesting their interest in securing his services. However, it seems they are facing stiff competition from Newcastle United, who are considering a move for the talented Belgian.
According to The Telegraph, Eddie Howe’s side is eyeing a potential transfer for Lavia, signalling their intent to bolster their midfield options. However, they remain aware that they are not the only club showing interest in securing the services of the young midfielder.
The emergence of Newcastle United as contenders for Lavia’s signature adds an interesting twist to the transfer saga. As both Liverpool and Newcastle vie for the talented midfielder’s services, it remains to be seen which club will ultimately secure his signature.
The Reds need more midfielders
Lavia’s rise at Southampton has certainly been impressive, showcasing his potential and versatility in midfield. His technical ability, work rate, and top-notch tackling make him an attractive prospect for any club. Both Liverpool and Newcastle recognize his talent and the impact he could have on their respective squads.
For Liverpool, the acquisition of Lavia would add depth and competition in midfield, further strengthening their options in the middle of the park. The Reds certainly need a backup for Fabinho who is not the same player he was a couple of seasons ago.
There is absolutely no doubt that Lavia has the potential to bring about a change in the Reds’ midfield as he has put performances like this consistently all season and prior to this as well, made a good name for himself in Manchester City’s age-group sides.
As the situation unfolds, Liverpool fans will anxiously await developments, hoping their club can come out on top and secure the services of a promising young talent like Lavia.
