Versatile £60m Star Open to Liverpool Move, FSG Interested
According to recent reports, Brighton striker Joao Pedro is receptive to the idea of joining Liverpool in a potential £60 million transfer in 2025. The 23-year-old Brazilian is seeking a new challenge in his career, and Liverpool’s owners FSG have shown interest in securing his services.
Pedro has caught Liverpool’s attention with his impressive performances for Brighton this season, registering 7 goal contributions (4 goals, 3 assists) in just 7 Premier League starts. His versatility as both a central striker and winger adds to his appeal.
With doubts persisting over Darwin Nunez’s consistency and Diogo Jota’s injury issues, Liverpool may be in the market for a new forward option. Pedro could potentially provide a long-term solution up front for the Reds.
Legendary striker Alan Shearer has praised Pedro as “superb”, highlighting the young Brazilian’s potential. His ability to play across the front line in a similar style to Diogo Jota would give Liverpool’s manager additional tactical flexibility in attack.
Whether Liverpool pursue Pedro likely depends on their assessment of Nunez, who remains inconsistent in his third season at Anfield. If Nunez fails to find consistency by the end of the season, Liverpool may opt to move for the highly-rated Pedro as a replacement.
The reported £60 million price tag reflects Pedro’s rising stock, but could prove good value if he continues his rapid development. His openness to joining Liverpool will encourage the club as they weigh up their forward options for the future.
