From the source

Liverpool are among the clubs showing serious interest in Brighton defender Luka Vuskovic, according to TeamTalk, with Real Madrid and Barcelona also firmly in the frame for one of Europe’s most closely watched young centre-backs.

The 19-year-old has rapidly moved into elite transfer conversations after a strong start to life at Brighton. TEAMtalk reports that Liverpool, Real Madrid and Barcelona are all “seriously interested” in the Croatian international, while Bayern Munich and Chelsea continue to monitor the situation closely.

Vuskovic only arrived at Brighton this summer in a club-record deal worth up to £50 million, following an impressive loan at Hamburg. Since then, he has become a regular in the Premier League, with his authority in the air, calmness in possession and physical presence pushing his stock even higher.
