They will take two approaches to signing the £108 million player, which could leave the Premier League rival empty-handed.

This season, the Reds have started slowly and are nine points behind Arsenal, who lead the table.Only time will tell if the Gunners can continue their excellent start.However, Man City's eight-point advantage may be more significant to Liverpool than anything else.

The difficulties Liverpool have encountered thus far have been attributed to a variety of theories.

One indisputable factor is injuries, which have harmed Jurgen Klopp primarily in his weakest area.

The midfield at Liverpool is currently a contentious issue, and even club legends disagree.

Jamie Carragher believes that "two or three" significant new names are required.Meanwhile, Robbie Fowler called the idea that Liverpool needs to be overhauled "nonsense."

Regardless, Jude Bellingham is rightfully making headlines as Liverpool's midfield is expected to be overhauled in 2023.

In today's Euro Paper Talk, the player's alleged preference was discussed in detail.

If Dortmund decide to sell, they will undoubtedly receive a sizable payment.The Sun cited a much more reasonable figure of £83 million, subject to full and upfront payment, while the Athletic stated that Dortmund wants £131 million.

Enzo Fernandez of Benfica was one midfielder who caught Liverpool's attention in the summer, along with Belingham.

Enzo Fernandez, an Argentine player who is 21 years old and moved to Portugal this summer, is still wanted by Liverpool. River Plate paid him €10 million, plus an additional €8 million, when Benfica called.

In the most recent window, Sky Sports reported that Liverpool were keeping a close eye on Fernandez.The central midfielder has quickly adapted to European football, and Portuguese publication O Jogo claims that Liverpool is still interested.

According to the Liverpool Echo, Liverpool "don't rule out" moving for Fernandez either in January or in the summer of next year.

There is a reported €120 million (£108 million) release clause in Fernandez's contract.Since Benfica is reluctant to sell in the middle of the season, a deal probably won't happen until next summer because Liverpool won't use such a high clause.

However, they might give it a shot in January with a bid that was significantly higher than Benfica's payment but well below the release clause.

In recent windows, Liverpool have frequently purchased Portuguese clubs.Darwin Nunez, also from Benfica, arrived last.Nine months ago, FC Porto offered Luis Diaz a contract.

Wolves are another frequent trading partner of Portugal's elite that could be upset by the Liverpool raid.

On August 17, Bruno Lage's team signed Matheus Nunes from Sporting Lisbon for a record-breaking £38 million.After only one season at Molineux, Nunes may be moving on after being a Liverpool target as well.

Nonetheless, the Sun previously reported that Wolves admire Enzo Fernandez as well.

In point of fact, in June, Wolves reportedly attempted to sign him by sending an entourage to South America.

They lost out to Benfica in the end, but the Sun said that Wolves could get Fernandez back in January.

However, the information provided by the newspaper concurred with O Jogo's assertion that a summer deal in 2023 is "more likely."

In any case, Enzo Fernandez is unquestionably a player to keep an eye on and may soon be playing in the Premier League.
