Liverpool are reportedly looking to add Romeo Lavia to their squad if Jordan Henderson decides to leave the club. Reports suggest that Henderson is leaning towards a move to Saudi Pro League side Al-Ettifaq, managed by former Reds captain Steven Gerrard. The 33-year-old has been offered an unbelievable wage of £700,000 per week, four times his current salary at Anfield.
In preparation for a potential departure, Liverpool are believed to have already opened talks with Lavia over a move. The Southampton midfielder is keen on joining the Reds, however, it is said that the club is not willing to pay the £50 million demanded by the Saints. Lavia moved to St Mary's last year for £14 million from Manchester City, who still have a buyback option for the 22-year-old, which will not be activated until next summer.
Liverpool have already made two signings this summer, with Alexis Mac Allister arriving for £35 million from Brighton and Dominik Szoboszlai coming in for £60 million from RB Leipzig. If Henderson does depart, Lavia could be the next piece of the puzzle for Jurgen Klopp's side.
