Yet another youngster has been placed with the Reds, but now in the winger position

At just 21 years of age, Álex Baena is one of the great protagonists not only of Villarreal but of the whole of LaLiga at the start of the season, with the Spanish international achieving a great leap in quality that has led him to score six goals in just eight games played with the Yellow Submarine, with the young player giving several offensive displays that have not gone unnoticed by all those top European clubs that have already taken note of his incredible football that he is displaying at the end of the 2022 season.

Such is the level shown in a few games by the Spaniard, that several Premier League teams are beginning to raise their hands and prepare their respective offers to try to get the Villarreal player to England, thus having the great opportunity to play for teams like Manchester City or Liverpool, two of the institutions that could be most interested at this time, of course, this without ruling out the appearance on the scene of other contenders such as Arsenal or Chelsea that would be of great help to them this young winger.

From Anfield it is known that the priorities are to sign one or two players in midfield who can be starters and influential since their arrival, this before the injuries and the low level of some players, in addition to those who will see their departure in a very short time. But even if Jurgen Klopp is focused on that area of the pitch, having another player to contribute in attack and be competition for that last sector that has been so irregular since the departure of Sadio Mané would not be a bad idea at all.
 

The current Liverpool player has a termination clause of 25 million euros in his contract with Villarreal, but the Spanish club itself is already anxious for Baena to sign a new agreement to be able to increase that figure and be able to leave both parties better off if any of these English teams still decide to take the Spanish international in the coming months, although undoubtedly the best thing for his career is to continue having that continuity in Spain alongside a Basque coach who has known how to take advantage and exploit the potential that he has in his boots to the maximum.

Liverpool's attack in this season 2022-2023 has been considerably diminished with the departure of Sadio Mané and the lack of effectiveness of the star reinforcement coming from Benfica, Darwin Núñez, combining the goal inefficiency with the bad moment for which it seems to be leaving both Diogo Jota and Mohamed Salah, being relegated to the bench the one who until today seems to be the most consistent with the goal, Roberto Firmino.
