Liverpool are reportedly close to agreeing a deal with Real Madrid that would allow them to sign the talented Spanish youngster Dani Cellabos.

The Spanish under-21 star is currently playing on loan at Real Betis for the season. It is unlikely that he would have a place in the Real Madrid first team squad for next season.

Per The Mirror, Liverpool will conclude a deal in the range of €40 million to secure his signature.

While there are other clubs interested, such as Juventus, they are unlikely to match Real's asking price. It gives Liverpool a free run at the player.
