Liverpool are jumping into the battle for Celta Vigo whiz Gabri Veiga.

That's according to local journalist Anton Meana, who said on Cadena Ser's El Larguero programme that Liverpool “love" Veiga.

Meana states the Reds can be considered as one of his main suitors.

To sign him, they could activate his €40million (£35m) release clause. There may even be a chance for Veiga to move for less than that amount.

He has had a breakout season in La Liga and the 20-year-old has scored nine goals, assisting three times in 25 appearances.

Real Madrid and Arsenal are also interested in the attacker.
