The 22-year-old defender has made 31 appearances for Leipzig but is keen to move after the team failed to qualify for European competition. Liverpool is prepared to offer between 50-55 million, influenced by an understanding that Leipzig may accept a lower fee than the symbolic 90-million release clause. Lukeba is enthusiastic about the move to Liverpool and the potential for continued career development at a Champions League level.
