Liverpool ‘to launch £25m transfer offer for Gleison Bremer’ as they look to beat Man Utd and Arsenal to Torino defender
LIVERPOOL have reportedly waded into the fray to sign Torino defender Gleison Bremer along with Manchester United and Arsenal.
And the Reds are willing to part with £25milllion to pip their Premier League rivals to the 25-year-old’s signature, according to Tuttojuve.
The Brazilian has made 29 appearances for the Serie A side this season, chipping in with three goals and an assist along the way.
His assured performances have caught the attention of Europe’s biggest clubs including Juventus and Bayern Munich.
But Arsenal, United, Chelsea, and now Liverpool are keen on bringing the defensive stalwart to the Prem this summer.
Plus, the Prem clubs – minus Chelsea who are temporarily banned from buying players – have the economic advantage over their European rivals in the race for Bremer, the report concluded.

Liverpool were previously tracking Bremer but their interest waned.
However, it’s likely that Bremer will provide back-up to the Reds’ main centre-backs Virgil Van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate, and Joel Matip if he moves to Anfield.
It will be a similar situation for Bremer at Arsenal where Ben White and Gabriel Magalhaes marshal their back-line.
The former Atlético Mineiro star’s best bet for first-team football could be at United if he prefers a move to England.
