Liverpool are interested in signing the Celta Vigo midfielder Gabri Veiga.
According to journalist Florian Plettenberg, the 21-year-old midfielder is ready for the next step in his career and talks have taken place with Liverpool recently.
Apparently, the midfielder has a release clause of €40 million in his contract and it remains to be seen whether Liverpool are prepared to pay up.
The 21-year-old had an impressive campaign with Celta Vigo and he scored 11 goals and picked up 4 assists across all competitions.
Veiga was one of the most promising young talents in Spanish football this past season and he has the ability to develop into a top-class player.
Liverpool need to add more creativity and goals to their midfield and the 21-year-old could prove to be a quality long-term investment.
Apparently, the midfielder is likely to move after the under-21 Euros and it remains to be seen whether Liverpool come forward with a concrete proposal for the player.
The Reds certainly have the financial resources to pay the reported €40 million release clause and the midfielder could end up justifying the investment in the long run.
Veiga is a prodigious talent with immense potential and he needs to join a club where he will get ample game time. Also, he needs a manager who will nurture his talent.
Working under Jurgen Klopp could accelerate his development and help him fulfil his tremendous potential. The German manager has a proven record of turning talented young players into established superstars.
