Liverpool’s coach Jürgen Klopp would have disappointed the fans in the last few hours, as the German manager would have given up on the signing of the Argentine 19-year-old superstar Valentin Barco from Boca Juniors, who had been identified by the Reds as the perfect signing for the team’s left back after having suffered the absences of Andy Robertson and Kostas Tsimikas in the last few months.

However, the Argentine young versatile player would have finally sealed his arrival to Brighton, where he is expected to become one of the main figures under Roberto de Zerbi’s management due to the player’s defensive and offensive abilities shown in his stage in Boca Juniors, where he could even reach a Libertadores Cup final.

In this sense, according to the Italian journalist and transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano, Valentin Barco to Brighton would be a deal totally done after the Seagulls would have finally decided to trigger the release clause of the player, set at €10 million to secure one of the latest gems in South American football.

Liverpool lost one of the most promising Argentine talents nowadays

Following these sources, the 2004 born talent would have already completed initial medical tests for Brighton in Argentina, and would travel to England in the next few days to stamp his signature in the final documents to make his arrival to English football a reality, which would have really saddened the Liverpool fans, conscious of being losing one of the most promising talents in Argentine football in the last few years
