Liverpool and Arsenal considering ambitious move for Barcelona star

Posted by

Premier League clubs Liverpool and Arsenal are both eyeing a move for Barcelona midfielder Pedri.

The Spaniard is one of the best players in the world in his position and he is rated by the fans.

Having shown his quality for the Catalans and the Spanish national team, Pedri has earned plaudits for his passing and creativity.

According to Marca (via TEAMtalk), the La Liga giants have decided to cash in on the midfielder after having a change of heart.

The report goes on to say that the Catalan giants would benefit much from cashing in on Pedri, and that would enable them to recruit some new players in transfer window.

The source has suggested that Arsenal are interested in the midfielder but it is Liverpool who are leading the race to sign the Spanish midfielder.

The Reds have genuine interest in the midfielder as they prepare for a new beginning under manager Arne Slot.

Outgoing boss Jurgen Klopp revamped the Liverpool midfield last summer after the departure of Jordan Henderson and Fabinho.

Pedri to Liverpool?

Liverpool need a replacement for Thiago

The Reds signed Alexis Mac Allister, Wataru Endo, Ryan Gravenberch and Dominik Szoboszlai.

However, with Thiago Alcantara leaving Anfield at the end of the season and Gravenberch failing to impress, the Reds are keen on a move for Pedri.

New Sporting director Richard Hughes and incoming boss Slot are interested in bringing the young midfielder to Anfield.

It is reported that an offer in the region of £51.3m would make Barcelona consider selling the midfielder.

Arsenal would suit Pedri move than Liverpool

For someone as talented as Pedri, that price tag looks like a bargain.

Arsenal’s interest is yet to gather pace but from the outside, it looks like Mikel Arteta’s team would suit the playing style of the Spanish midfielder more.

It remains to be seen how both the clubs go about with their transfer business in the summer but if they manage to sign Pedri, it would be a major coup.
