Liverpool is apparently hopeful that they can recruit Romeo Lavia from Southampton in the upcoming days for a solid salary per year
Journalist Ben Jacobs reports that despite work slowing down in recent days after a frenzied past week, the Reds have not given up hope of securing a deal to sign Lavia. Even though Liverpool made two bids for Lavia in an effort to sign the Belgian international before the Premier League season began, lately there hasn’t been much movement.
Romeo Lavia to Liverpool salary, contract details, transfer fee, net worth, height and age
Although Lavia would be Jurgen Klopp’s third midfield addition of the transfer season after Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, Liverpool is still confident in making the acquisition.
Born: 6 January 2004 (age 19 years), Brussels, Belgium
Current teams: Southampton F.C. (Midfielder), MORE
Height: 1.81 m
Nationality: Belgian
Dates joined: 2022 (Southampton F.C.), 2021 (Manchester City F.C.)
The Reds back the addition of Lavia to the squad
While there are still questions regarding the player’s full value, Reds supporters have been calling for Southampton’s centre-back to be one of their new additions for several weeks. Despite being relegated with the Saints last season, the Belgian was one of the most outstanding players in the squad, and the club is looking to get a good return from him in order to plan a quick return to the Premier League.
Moreover, fans believe that this player will be one of those immediate solutions who will prove his value on the pitch as soon as the whistle blows for the start of the season at Stamford Bridge.
Liverpool has sent an improved bid
Romeo Lavia’s move to Merseyside may have been slightly overshadowed by Jordan Henderson’s exit from Liverpool, but the midfielder from Belgium is still expected to make a splash as the Reds are reportedly paying between £42m and £45m to acquire him from Southampton.
In Singapore yesterday, Liverpool defeated Leicester City 4-0, and Romeo Lavia and Kylian Mbappe are still rumoured to be on their way to Anfield. According to rumours, Liverpool might try to negotiate a stunning loan deal for the PSG superstar. A second offer for Southampton midfielder Romeo Lavia is reportedly being readied after an earlier offer in the neighbourhood of £38 million was turned down.
Lavia’s pay would undoubtedly be less than Mohamed Salah’s and may easily exceed Darwin Nunez’s €4.6 million contract, according to reports. Rumours indicate that the center-half’s earnings would be in the range of €5 to €6 million.
Roméo Lavia is a young player and footballing has contributed much to his earnings and the player’s net worth is estimated to be £2.2 million.
Liverpool have a new captain and vice-captain.
After Jordan Henderson left Liverpool, the team chose Virgil van Dijk to take over as captain. Of course, Milner also left the team this summer, which forced Liverpool to look inside their roster for new captains. Moreover, James Milner’s former position as vice-captain will be filled by Trent Alexander-Arnold.
