Real Betis’ Jesús Rodríguez has ended up on Liverpool’s agenda, according to PTI Sevilla, relayed by El Desmarque.
The 19-year-old spent a year at the club’s youth system and left them for Calavera in 2022, only to return to Real Betis’ academy in 2023. Earlier this season, he was promoted to the first team and has a goal and an assist from 12 games.
Rodríguez has not only ‘exploded’ at the La Liga club but also attracted attention of other clubs, including Liverpool.
The report states several clubs are keeping an eye on the winger, ‘specifically’ one from the Premier League.
This is when Liverpool are mentioned.
PTI Sevilla state the Reds sent scouts to closely follow the player live in action against Athletic on Sunday. The Spain U19 international was on the pitch for 81 minutes. The tie ended in a 2-2 draw, and he didn’t contribute with a goal or an assist.
Former Liverpool players Antonio Barragan, Dani Pacheco, Suso and Luis Alberto all had connections to Real Betis or Sevilla. El Desmarque points that out to state it’s very common for the Reds to ‘fish in their fishing ground’ and they have Rodríguez as the new name on their list.
