Liverpool are reportedly one of four major clubs vying to sign former Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood in a surprising transfer development.
After a relatively quiet few windows—having only signed Federico Chiesa in the last two—Liverpool could be in for a busy summer. The Reds are looking to strengthen their attack, with Darwin Núñez even linked to a potential swap deal for a Premier League star.
According to Spanish outlet Fichajes, Liverpool have identified Greenwood as a target ahead of the summer transfer window. The Marseille forward, who moved from Manchester United last summer for £26.6 million, has attracted interest from several top clubs.
Barcelona, Bayern Munich, and Juventus are also in the race to sign the 23-year-old, who has been in excellent form, scoring 15 goals in all competitions this season—14 of them in Ligue 1 across 23 matches.
Marseille recognize Greenwood’s rising value and have set a hefty £62 million price tag for him. While Barcelona may struggle to meet the demand, Liverpool, Bayern, and Juventus are reportedly prepared to pay the fee.
Greenwood had previously been linked with Barcelona before joining Marseille and had a productive loan spell at Getafe, where he netted 10 goals. His performances in France have put him back on the radar of Europe’s top clubs, with reports suggesting he is once again considered among the most sought-after players in the game.
