Premier League beckons?

However, the Reds remain interested in the 23-year-old amid uncertainties surrounding the future of Darwin Nunez. So, the Feyenoord striker has emerged as a viable target for the Merseyside outfit.
As for Tottenham, they have pursued Gimenez for a long time. The North London giants have previously made their attempts to inch closer to signing the Mexican international. Tottenham and Liverpool now have a shot in their arms, with the report claiming Gimenez will leave Feyenoord to embark on a new adventure in the Premier League.
Meanwhile, Liverpool and Tottenham face stiff competition from Leeds United and Southampton. However, Leeds United cannot offer Premier League football, while Gimenez might feel the Saints are beneath him. So, it will be interesting to see where the 23-year-old plies his trade in the 2024/25 season.
