Transfer Interest: Liverpool is reportedly interested in Jean-Philippe Mateta, with manager Arne Slot eager to strengthen the frontline in light of Diogo Jota’s passing and the possible exit of Darwin Núñez.
Meeting with Mateta: Mateta and his agent recently held talks with Liverpool officials in Paris regarding a possible transfer.
Transfer Fee: Crystal Palace may consider offers around €60 million (£51 million), or slightly lower, given Mateta has two years remaining on his current deal.
Competition: Liverpool could face rival interest from Manchester United and other clubs pursuing the striker.
Mateta’s Performance: The 28-year-old forward delivered a strong season, netting 17 goals and providing 4 assists in 46 appearances for Palace, underlining his ability as a reliable number nine.
While no deal has been finalized, Mateta’s form and compatibility with Liverpool’s attacking philosophy make him a compelling target for the club.
