Fabrizio Romano has provided an update on the future of Joao Pedro following links with Liverpool and Chelsea.

And now it seems Brighton could be ready to let Pedro go this summer, though he won’t come cheap, with Romano reporting on X that the Brazilian’s asking price would be in the region of €70m.
See below for more details from Romano, who describes this as one to watch for the upcoming summer window…

Joao Pedro transfer suitors include Liverpool and Chelsea
CaughtOffside have recently been informed that Pedro has interest from Liverpool, Chelsea, Aston Villa, and Newcastle United.
Romano hasn’t named any specific clubs, but he has confirmed our report that the 23-year-old could be on the move this summer.
Pedro has ten goals and six assists in total for Brighton this season, so it’s easy to imagine he could do even better at a bigger club, where he’d have better players around him.

“He’s a good player. He catches my eye almost every time I watch Brighton,” Watts said.
