Liverpool's management continues its search for another winger, with the official announcement of the Bradley Barcola deal expected today. The Reds have now set their sights on Chelsea's wide player, Estevao, according to The Mirror. The Brazilian enjoyed a strong campaign last year, primarily coming off the bench, yet still managed eight goals and four assists in 36 appearances across all competitions. However, his role with the Blues this season is expected to be far more peripheral, as the team's new manager, Xabi Alonso, favors a system utilizing wing-backs.
It is precisely for this reason that Liverpool will attempt to negotiate with the London club for the Brazilian talent, valued at around 80 million, who is still only 19 years old. The team from the city of the Beatles lost their star player Mohamed Salah and is still exploring options to bolster competition on both flanks. Furthermore, in the coming hours, they are likely to part ways with Cody Gakpo, who is expected to move to Manchester City for £85 million.
