ANDRIJA MAKSIMOVIC RACE HEATING UP Liverpool are ready to make the first move in the race to sign Red Star Belgrade youngster Andrija Maksimovic. The 17-year-old has attracted interest from


several clubs, reportedly including Newcastle, but Arne Slot is keen to get a deal done. The Serbian's agent Zoran Stojadinovic said: “It’s no secret, there are some offers. Liverpool


are among them, Aston Villa, Leipzig and Atletico Madrid so all the clubs from the top leagues have shown serious interest. And then we get to whether the price is €12million [£10m] or €20m


[£16.7m], so they say ‘let’s see if it’s €20m by June’. If the price was €10m [£8.4m] and he could go, Maksimovic would have already been sold.”
