That’s generous - probs need a few more zeroes after the decimal point.
Very comprehensive analysis – now I'm even more in the Caicedo camp, he seems tailor-made for a Klopp midfield. If we can't buy him this summer, we should try again next year. However he is hardly going to be cheaper next summer, so probably better to bite the bullet and do the transfer now.
Interesting to compare his numbers with Bellingham – their strengths and weaknesses are not aligned in many areas, which seems to suggest they can complement each other if they were to play in the same team.

Come on mate. Have our expectations dropped so much ? That's bang average.
That's like the lazier, much slower, less classier version of Messi or Iniesta.
Even our aging Thiago does those trademark shuffles every other game.
He's good, maybe as a squad/rotation player but he's not my first choice. He's certainly nowhere near Kante - young or old.
How is he lazy?
If you want a Messi or Iniesta then we won’t be signing a midfielder this generation then.
He’s 20 and seems to be just what we need at DM to help Fab.

Brighton and Hove Albion have reportedly set an asking price of around £100m for the services of highly-rated midfielder Moises Caicedo.
This update comes courtesy of Ecuadorian journalist Jose Alberto Molestina on Twitter amid Liverpool’s ongoing efforts to land a new addition to their midfield department ahead of the close of the summer transfer window.

This is a non-starter. Just look at the fees for players moving within the PL this year:
Fofana - 70+ million
Cucurella - 60 million
Sterling - 50 million
Richarlison - 50 million
Jesus - 45 million
Kalvin Phillips - 45 million
Brighton have no need of selling given the huge Cucurella sale, and they'll obviously ask for some absurd price.
The only viable deals at this stage are for players left with 12 months on their contract - Tielemans or Laimer. Or someone from a club who needs money. Maybe that's Gladbach with Kone, who knows.

I know Brighton don't want to sell now, but is he going to get cheaper in a year after playing his first full season in the league? Do you see the prices going for other promising young midfielders around Europe. If the club and Klopp think he's the right fit long-term, then just bite the bullet and buy him now.
He’s 20 years old, has 3 years left on his contract and has 12 Premier League appearances under his belt.
I’d say the time to sign is when he has 1 year left on his contract - if he’s smart he’ll know not to extend his contract unless there’s a release clause - because the sort of clubs that want him will pay far higher wages than Brighton will pay.
He’ll be a better player for it too - if he comes to us now, he’ll not get anywhere near enough playing time.
His transfer fee will be more reasonable as well.
Overpriced for a player thats played only 12 games.. move on.
Here are my top 3
Danilo
Neves
Laimer
Hell, I'd even settle for Michael Sebitzer on loan or free agent Florian Grillitsch (can play CB, DM and CM)
i admire the optimism
Think it's too later but Gilmour joining does increase the chance of a Jan move (if our interest is indeed concrete)
Fuck planes off. We need the Babelcopter
I'm sure they are scribbled down in Klopp's diary as 'done deals' for 2023, but I think FSG might have other ideas.
It seems like the longer we desire a player, the lower the likelihood of actually signing him.
