Revealed: Liverpool demand €50-55m fee for unexpected player ahead of potential transfer exit.

Liverpool are reportedly open to selling Diogo Jota this summer for the right price, with several clubs showing interest. Sources close to the matter have told CaughtOffside that the Reds are seeking around €50-55m for the Portugal international.

While Jota remains a valuable squad member, his ongoing injury issues could make him a candidate for sale if a suitable offer arrives. CaughtOffside indicates that interest in Jota comes from his former club Wolves, as well as Aston Villa and Newcastle United. Additionally, clubs in Saudi Arabia, including Al Hilal, Al Ittihad, and Al Nassr, have also shown interest.

It’s unclear whether any formal offers will be made or if they will meet Liverpool’s asking price. While there seems to be no immediate need for the club to sell the 28-year-old, offloading him could help raise funds for other transfers.

Jota’s versatility, especially in central attacking roles, might require Liverpool to look for a replacement if he departs. With doubts surrounding Darwin Nunez’s performance, the sale of both players could provide funds to pursue a top centre-forward.

Despite Jota’s inconsistent season, Empire of the Kop writer Liam Togher warns that the forward could still be crucial for Liverpool, urging caution in any decision to let go of the player.
