On the other hand, as per famous Italian journalist, Fabrizio Romano, the Anfield club came up with an offer of £42m.

However, the figures were not enough to agree a deal with the Saints, they are still demanding a fee of £50m for the teenager, who trained with the St Mary’s outfit yesterday.

As per The Mail, Liverpool are reluctant to bid that big for a 19-year-old midfielder, who only has limited top flight experience under his belt.

Nevertheless, the 19-time English champions are expected to come up with another offer for the Belgian international and reports indicate they are prepared to agree a fee worth £45m.

According to an exclusive story covered by Football Insider last night, Liverpool are ready to reach £45m to sign the talented defensive midfielder to replace Fab and Hendo at Anfield.

The news source have mentioned that Liverpool have already secured personal terms of a contract with Lavia and even Romano confirmed the player wants the move.
