After their 3-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest in last weekend’s Premier League matches, Liverpool have dropped to the bottom half of the table and there is serious pressure on the defending champions to get a quick corner.
Their latest signings, apart from Hugo Ekitike, have not had the desired impact, while the players who stood out from last season have also failed this time around, and it seems the board is ready to make more investments in 2026.
According to FichajesLiverpool are keen to sign Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Joao Neves, who is seen as a solution to their midfield deficit. The Portuguese will offer them control and stability, as well as extra depth in the engine room.
PSG values Neves at around £140 million, according to the source on Transfermarkthe is worth £79 million. It remains to be seen what Liverpool are willing to spend on his signing, but it goes without saying that he will add much-needed quality.
Neves signing possible next summer
Joao Neves missed a few weeks of the current season due to a hamstring injury but remains a vital part of Paris Saint-Germain’s setup under Luis Enrique, so acquiring him in the January window will be a difficult task for Liverpool.
That said, if the player fancies a Premier League challenge with the Reds after the end of 2025/26, PSG could consider cashing in on the 21-year-old, whose valuation could improve depending on his World Cup performance.
Neves is a brilliant number eight, who excels at controlling possession in tight spaces, moving into the final third with close passing and dribbling, while also contributing without the ball with good pressing and an intelligent ability to intercept passes.
While Liverpool may be willing to pay a premium for his signing, it will be interesting to see if he is open to a move to England given his prominence at PSG. But after winning it all in France, the player might welcome greener pastures.
