"Liverpool" has started negotiations with the Ukrainian club "Shakhtar" from Donetsk regarding the attacking midfielder Alex Teixeira, as reported by the portal "Goal.com". The 26-year-old footballer is also being pursued by London's "Chelsea", but "Liverpool" has taken drastic measures and has already sent a delegation to start negotiations for the acquisition of the Brazilian. According to the source mentioned, A. Teixeira is valued at around 38 million euros. Because of this, "Chelsea" was unable to reach an agreement with the Ukrainians, but it seems that "Liverpool" does not intend to make the same mistake and will pay the full amount. The midfielder, who has been playing for "Shakhtar" since 2010, has been in impressive form this season. In 25 matches played, he has managed to score 26 goals. The multiple national champions are currently participating in a friendly tournament in Florida, but A. Teixeira was not registered for this tournament."
