Maxi Gomez brushes off Liverpool transfer speculation
Celta Vigo star Maxi Gomez has poured cold water of rumours that he could be set for a move to Liverpool.
Gomez has had an eye-catching season in La Liga with Celta, notching up 13 goals and five assists across the campaign, and Liverpool are considering a bid for the 22-year-old striker.
Jurgen Klopp is on the hunt for attacking reinforcements this summer with Daniel Sturridge tipped to leave Liverpool and Gomez is reportedly high up on the Reds wishlist of targets to replace the Englishman.
The likes of West Ham and Barcelona have also been linked with the Uruguay international.

However, Gomez has brushed off the speculation, insisting that hes very comfortable in Spain with Celta.
Asked about his future, Gomez told Marca: There are many comments through social networks, what if I sign for Barcelona, if I go to Liverpool…
I am very calm and in Vigo I feel very comfortable.
Gomez has a £42million release clause in his contract at Celta which could put off potential suitors in the summer transfer window.
