SkySports
have reported that Liverpool are in talks for the summer deal with Hoffenheim
and Sevilla for Roberto Firmino and Carlos Bacca, respectively.
Liverpool
who have been targeting Aston Villa Christian Benteke might be taking a step
back from his pursuit as the fee demanded by the Villains is £32.5million which
is way too high for the Belgian striker.
Brazilian
media Globoesporte reported that the deal between Liverpool and Hoffenheim
has been agreed, however the Sky Sources believe that it is yet to be agreed.
Firmino
has been tipped to be an ideal replacement of Liverpool youngster Raheem
Sterling who is keen to leave the club this summer.
While
Liverpool are also keeping tabs on Carlo Bacca of Sevilla who is currently
with his national side Colombia for the Copa America.
The
reports believed that the fee around £20million
has been offered for the Colombian striker who scored 28 last last season.
According
to Spanish football pundit Guillem
Balague, Bacca is keen to leave the Spanish club for a Premier League club.
Sevilla are keen to keep him but the palyer has no plans to stay.
Balague
told:
“Carlos Bacca at the end of the season told Sevilla he would like a way out.”
Meanwhile, Liverpool are also targeting Zenit St Petersburg star José Salomón Rondón who will cost around £15million.
