Liverpool's £40m Lavia bid rejected by Southampton

Southampton have rejected a bid thought to be worth £40m from Liverpool for midfielder Romeo Lavia.

The Saints are understood to be holding out for £50m for the 19-year-old.

One source has told Sky Sports News that Chelsea are also interested and keeping an eye on his situation.

Lavia has four years left on his Southampton contract.

The Belgium international joined Southampton from Manchester City last summer, but is expected to leave after the Saints were relegated from the Premier League at the end of last season.
