Joao Pedro is ‘expected to leave’ Brighton with ‘movements taking place’, according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, amid interest from Newcastle United, Liverpool and Chelsea.
The striker has caught the eye with his performances on the south coast and is now firmly on the radar of the Premier League’s big boys.
Manchester United have been linked with him, but they are moving for Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo, something which has seen Newcastle step up their push for Pedro.
Liverpool are also fans of Pedro, while the Brighton man has been suggested to be keen to speak to Chelsea if they can agree a fee with Brighton for him.
Now things appear to be happening on the Pedro front as he is ‘expected to leave’ Brighton and there are ‘movements taking place’.
How advanced a switch for Pedro is remains to be seen.
