Liverpool have made enquiries about Palmeiras’ 19-year-old attacking midfielder Erick Belé as they assess options to strengthen their forward line.
The Brazilian is understood to have attracted attention through his performances for Brazil Under-20s, with the Reds contacting Palmeiras to establish the conditions of a potential transfer. No formal offer has been submitted.
Liverpool enquiries for Erick Belé
Palmeiras are reportedly prepared to negotiate from a valuation of around €30 million (£25 million), despite Belé recently signing a new contract that runs until October 2031.
Paris Saint-Germain have also contacted the Brazilian club, leaving Liverpool facing competition from the French champions if they decide to pursue the teenager.
Belé has impressed during international duty, registering three assists in three matches at a recent Brazil training camp in Spain. He also scored twice against Paraguay earlier this year.
His senior experience remains limited, however. The attacking midfielder has made seven first-team appearances for Palmeiras and has scored once as the club continues to manage his development.
Liverpool’s initial enquiries indicate that they are monitoring Belé’s progress closely, but the Premier League club must now decide whether to turn that interest into a formal bid.
