Liverpool must act fast if they’re to salvage a midfield transfer after Fabrizio Romano detailed Chelsea’s concrete interest and brought news of a sizeable offer being tabled. Midfield additions will be front and centre at Anfield this summer. Given Arthur Melo, James Milner, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are all leaving, a midfield overhaul is now a necessity, not a luxury. Alexis Mac Allister looks set to be the first high profile name through the door. Sporting Lisbon’s Manuel Ugarte is the player in question, with the 22-year-old Uruguay international a veritable rock in the engine room.
However, a Reds offer is yet to materialise and according to Fabrizio Romano, a move to Anfield is now a longshot.
That’s because not only are Chelsea confirmed suitors for the player, but French giant PSG have actually lodged a bid.
