The Reds need to add more quality and creativity in the middle of the park and Veiga seems like an exciting prospect. He could be the ideal replacement for players like Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain next season.

The 20-year-old needs to join a club where he will play regularly and Liverpool might have to provide him with game-time assurances in order to convince him.
