Football Insider reported earlier this month that Liverpool have entered the competition to sign Palmeiras’ promising talent, Vitor Reis. However, the club is primarily focused on their pressing need for a central defender.
According to the report, Reis is eager to move to Europe, with hopes of playing in the Champions League, but Palmeiras is determined to keep him for the time being.
ESPN Brazil also noted interest from Manchester United, Arsenal, and Paris Saint-Germain earlier this month. With Reis’s contract running until December 2028 and a hefty €100 million release clause, it seems unlikely that any club will make a swift move for him.
Instead, top teams are expected to monitor the Brazilian defender’s progress throughout the season.
More confirmation that Premier League clubs are in the race
According to NossoPalmeiras, Arsenal are interested in signing an 18-year-old Brazilian talent. However, they will face competition from Liverpool, who consider the youngster a potential replacement for Virgil van Dijk.
With interest from top English clubs, Palmeiras are expected to demand around €100 million for their star player. Moreover, the latest report from Fichajes reveals that Real Madrid are also a club to watch in this race.
The Spanish side view Reis as a solid option to bolster their defense, joining Éder Militão, David Alaba, and Antonio Rüdiger.
