Liverpool targets Villarreal's Alberto Moleiro ahead of January transfer
Summary

Julian Ward is actively pursuing Villarreal's Alberto Moleiro as a potential signing for Liverpool. With an eye on strengthening the attack, Liverpool continues to explore options after missing out on Yan Diomande. Moleiro, a 23-year-old winger and attacking playmaker, is attracting interest from multiple clubs, including Arsenal and Manchester City. Despite Liverpool's summer spending of over £150 million on two attackers, they are reportedly still seeking to bolster their lineup ahead of the January 2027 transfer window. Villarreal remains firm on not allowing their key player to leave easily.
