In a separate deal, Wolves are set to sign 18-year-old Dutch defender Ki-Jana Hoever from the Reds.

Hoever’s move is expected to be worth £9m, with a possible further £4.5m in add-ons and a 15% sell-on clause.

Diogo Jota can play across the forward line and would provide cover for Liverpool’s vaunted front three of Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, and Mohamed Salah.

Jota joined Wolves on loan in their 2017-18 Championship-winning campaign, making a £12.8m permanent switch in 2018.

He has made 131 appearances for the Molineux side, scoring 44 goals, including hat-tricks in last season’s Europa League victories against Besiktas and Espanyol.
