Liverpool interested in shock move for Premier League star

Arne Slot on "dark arts" in football

Liverpool are making plans for the upcoming transfer windows and are intent on adding more young talent to their squad, especially from other Premier League clubs.

The Reds have some ideas for the winter transfer window when they want to bring in a central midfielder after they failed to sign a new number 6 last summer.

Liverpool have been tracking several players and are also prepared to move on a few with stars such as Wataru Endo and Tyler Morton expected to leave the club in January.

The Reds have certain ideas for midfield reinforcements in the middle of the season but the club are identifying long-term young midfield targets for next summer as well.

The Merseyside giants signed Alexis Mac Allister from Brighton last year and now have their eyes on the Seagulls again for another midfield option.

Liverpool have their eyes on 19-year-old at Brighton

Carlos Baleba has started seven Premier League games for Brighton this season and his impressive performances have piqued the interest of the big boys of the league.

Brighton signed him from Lille last year and it seems the club managed to unearth another hidden gem when most big clubs were not looking.

The 19-year-old is getting watched by some of the biggest clubs in the Premier League and according to talkSPORT, Liverpool are keeping tabs on him.

     Can you name the club Liverpool signed these players from?

Balebas has impressed Liverpool’s recruitment team and the club are keen to further monitor his progress over the course of the season.

Arsenal also have their eyes on the teenager and Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou is also known as a big admirer of the midfielder.

Brighton will sell him but when?

The Seagulls are under no financial pressure to sell given the profits they have earned over the years through player departures.

However, if Baleba continues to impress and big clubs come calling, Brighton are likely to cash in on him in the future as they remain a selling club.

However, Tony Bloom, the Brighton chief executive, is a shrewd operator and will only consider selling Baleba at the right time.

Brighton would want Baleba’s value to reach a certain level before they consider letting him go and join a bigger club in the Premier League or the continent.
