Luis Alberto struggled to make an impact at Liverpool, and there was no surprise when manager Jurgen Klopp decided to sell the Spain international.

The 29-year-old, who can operate as an attacking midfielder or as a winger, joined Lazio from Liverpool in the summer of 2016 for £4.3 million (The Daily Mail).

Luis Alberto made only nine appearances in the Premier League for Liverpool and had loan spells at Malaga and Deportivo La Coruna while he was officially on the books of the Reds.

However, the Spaniard has turned around his fortunes at Lazio, and Liverpool fans might be amazed to hear that he is now valued at €40 million (£33.56 million).

RadioSei have reported that Italian and European giants Juventus are interested in signing Luis Alberto.

Lazio reportedly want €40 million (£33.56 million) for the attacker.

And we can understand why.

The former Liverpool player has established himself as a key figure at Lazio and has been superb over the years.

So far this season, Luis Alberto has scored four goals and given seven assists in 21 Serie A starts.

The attacker has also given one assist in six Europa League starts for Lazio this campaign.

During the 2020-21 campaign, Luis Alberto scored nine goals and provided two assists in 33 Serie A starts.
