Liverpool are exploring midfield options ahead of the summer window, and one Tottenham Hotspur youngster has now emerged as a name of interest amid shifting plans at Anfield.
Tottenham Hotspur have a strong core of young talents in their current first-team squad, even though these talents are not from their academy.
The likes of Archie Gray, 19, and Lucas Bergvall, 20, stand out as ones for the future for Tottenham, given the amount of first-team football they have been exposed to since moving to north London.
Luka Vuskovic in Germany is another exciting youngster on the books of Tottenham – one that continues to impress in the Bundesliga. Of course, these young talents are players Spurs will be desperate to keep.
Tottenham midfielder Lucas Bergvall draws Liverpool transfer interest
A report from TeamTalk has now revealed that Lucas Bergvall is a player on the radar of Premier League heavyweights Liverpool.
It is understood that speculation surrounding the future of Red Star Alexis Mac Allister has forced Arne Slot’s side to consider their midfield options.
Bergvall, who is currently injured and racing against time to be back sometime in March, is now the latest midfielder to come across Liverpool’s radar as they scour Europe for midfield talent.
Liverpool join Aston Villa and Chelsea in race for Bergvall
Spurs are, of course, in a commanding position here, and it is understood that the fee they would ask for will be designed to deter suitors.
Liverpool are not the only ones showing interest, with Aston Villa also monitoring the Swedish international.
We reported earlier this month that Villa and Chelsea even considered making an offer for Bergvall during the winter window, one that Spurs quickly rebuffed.
Liverpool also had Juventus’ Khephren Thuram on their radar, but the midfielder is set to put pen to paper in Turin as he believes in their long-term project, ending the Reds’ interest in him.
