LIVERPOOL are poised to make a FOURTH bid for Romeo Lavia after learning top target Moises Caicedo is determined to join Chelsea.
Kop boss Jurgen Klopp ordered his recruitment team to explore the possibility of hijacking Brighton ace Caicedo from under the noses of their rivals.
But the midfielder remains Chelsea’s No 1 target and has made it clear that if he leaves the Seagulls it will only be for West London.
Knowledge of the 21-year-old’s views meant no formal bid was registered by Anfield.
Chelsea have offered Southampton £48million with add-ons for Lavia – £3m more than the Reds.
