Liverpool are indeed interested in Moises Caicedo, though reports from a host of patch journalists, including Sky’s Melissa Reddy, have made clear that a bid is yet to come from Jurgen Klopp’s outfit.
The reporter clarified the situation on X, with the Merseysiders evidently exploring their options should a move for Romeo Lavia fall through this summer.

There’s no question that we’d by buying Lavia for his vast potential just as much to fill the vacant number six spot following Fabinho’s £40m departure to the Saudi Pro League.
Caicedo, by comparison, would represent more of a sure thing – especially when it comes to boosting our chances of a quick return to the premier European table come the following summer.
Given CEO Billy Hogan’s comments on the detrimental impact of Europa League football, Champions League qualification shouldn’t be something we’re gambling on if we can help it.
With Chelsea being the Ecuadorian’s ideal move, as things currently stand, we may only have the briefest of windows to intervene if we’re truly serious about securing his signature.
Thrashing around in panic is more the description.
Very strange if true. Have we agreed to sign Lavia and this is our next move? Or has the Lavia deal fell through? Not buying it that we now suddenly have the funds for Caicedo unless something drastic has happened like selling Salah to the Saudis. But I doubt that as well.
The owner of the club is stigy is not serious when it comes to business, but what he should know is that the club is finishing please we want new players in midfielder
With no CL money, recent stadium renovation expenses, and no cash coming in from 4 players that left, we are not getting Lavia or Caicedo. Welcome back to reality, fellow Liverpool fans. Bajcetic and Macca get ready to work your asses off as DM. We will be fine.
