Liverpool's move for Southampton midfielder Romeo Lavia is on track.

That's according to Belgian reporter Sacha Tavolieri, who states the clubs are in contact over the youngster.

Tavolieri said: "As far as I know, there's no need to worry for Romeo Lavia's to Liverpool.

"Reds were busy to close the Fabinho's deal today and every part involved were waiting for this deal to be done before a new movement after yesterday morning verbal bid around £45m deal, bonus included.

"Things are taking their time but there's a confidence - as from #LFC than at #SaintsFC - a deal would be done. More news soon after another onslaught from the Reds."
