This weekend, Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola’s teams are gearing up to face each other on the field in what promises to be an exciting match. However, off the pitch, an interesting challenge between Liverpool and Manchester City is brewing for the summer.

Both teams are vying for the top spot in the Premier League and are actively working on their transfer plans for the upcoming market and beyond. A recent report has revealed that both Liverpool and City are eyeing a high-profile move within the Premier League to strengthen their attacking positions.

According to a report by The Telegraph’s Mike McGrath, both clubs are showing interest in Wolves forward Pedro Neto, who may be available for sale in the summer transfer market. It is expected that the Portugal international will attract interest from several Premier League clubs, with his price tag likely to be set at over £60 million.

While Liverpool is closely monitoring Neto, Manchester City’s scouting team holds him in high regard. City has already made moves to strengthen their attacking options by securing a deal for Brazilian talent Savio from ESTAC Troyes within the City Football Group.

Savio, a teenage winger who has been impressing on loan at Girona in La Liga, will now have his future controlled by Manchester City. The club has a history of strong relations with Wolverhampton Wanderers, having worked closely with them in the past summer transfer window for the transfer of Matheus Nunes.

As both teams compete on the field this weekend, the competition off the field for players like Pedro Neto adds an extra layer of intrigue to the already intense rivalry between Liverpool and Manchester City.
