Liverpool have reportedly set their sights on an audacious €100 million move for Real Madrid superstar Vinícius Júnior, according to Spanish outlet Fichajes. The rumour has sparked excitement among Reds supporters, especially with whispers of growing tension between the Brazilian winger and Madrid manager Xabi Alonso.

While Liverpool have been exploring options to bolster their frontline, the idea of pairing Vinícius with Mohamed Salah is one that would instantly elevate the club’s attacking threat. Operating naturally on the left flank, the 24-year-old would offer blistering pace, creativity, and a goal-scoring edge, qualities that could perfectly complement Salah’s influence on the right.

Reports suggest that tensions between Vinícius and Alonso have emerged due to tactical disagreements and a slight dip in form early this season. Though Los Blancos would be reluctant to lose one of their most valuable players, Liverpool’s long-term interest and their willingness to spend big on elite attackers could make this a story to watch in the coming weeks.

From Liverpool’s perspective, manager Arne Slot has been pushing for a dynamic winger who can bring unpredictability to the final third. With the club undergoing a gradual rebuild following the Jürgen Klopp era, a marquee signing like Vinícius would send a strong statement to the rest of the Premier League.
