Liverpool are among a number of clubs interested in Valencia midfielder Andre Gomes, according to Marca. The Spanish newspaper believes the Reds, Juventus, Barcelona, Chelsea, Inter Milan and Napoli are the sides that are tracking the Portuguese international.

The 22 year old is one of Europe’s hottest properties and is currently performing for Portugal at the European Championships in France. He is expected to start against Wales in the semi final tonight.

Juventus have been frontrunners for Gomes for quite a while but after having a €40million bid rejected, they have not followed up their interest further in the player. The midfielder has a contract until 2020 with a release clause of €120million.

Valencia do not need to sell Gomes with businessman Peter Lim financially backing the Spanish club and Marca believe the La Liga side are holding out for at least €65million or £55million for the Portuguese star as 25% of the transfer fee will go to Benfica. Considering Liverpool are struggling to negotiate a €12.5million fee for Piotr Zielinski, it’s unlikely that Gomes would currently be in the club’s price range unless they sell players.
