Liverpool in talks with £100m “complete” forward for 2025 transfer

Liverpool are reportedly in discussions with Brighton & Hove Albion striker Joao Pedro regarding a potential transfer in 2025. The Brazilian forward is said to be fully prepared for a move next summer, with Liverpool viewing him as a solution to their ongoing issues with Darwin Nunez’s inconsistent goalscoring form.

According to reports, Brighton value Pedro at £100 million, continuing their trend of securing large profits on player sales following the departures of stars like Moises Caicedo and Alexis Mac Allister. While it remains uncertain if Liverpool will meet this valuation, Pedro is seen as a potential long-term replacement for Roberto Firmino and could address the team’s attacking concerns.

Former Brighton manager Roberto de Zerbi has praised Pedro as a “complete player” with “incredible abilities” in scoring, movement, and technique. The 22-year-old’s versatility and goalscoring prowess make him an attractive option for Liverpool as they look to bolster their attack.

If the transfer materializes, Pedro would follow in the footsteps of his former teammate Mac Allister in moving from Brighton to Liverpool. The Reds view this potential acquisition as a way to enhance their squad and maintain their competitiveness in both the Premier League and European competitions.
