Overview
- Multiple outlets report Liverpool have formally registered interest in 17‑year‑old Gilberto Mora alongside Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester City, Chelsea, PSG and Bayern Munich, creating a wide European auction for his signature.
- FIFA rules prevent any international transfer before Mora turns 18, so clubs can only negotiate deals now and must wait for formal registration after his 18th birthday in October 2026.
- Club Tijuana recently extended Mora’s contract until 2029, and reported release‑clause estimates in the region of €20–23m raise the price and give Tijuana greater leverage in talks.
- Mora’s agent Rafaela Pimenta has said there is no rush and that development will guide decisions, which points to likely outcomes such as pre‑contract agreements, loan spells or a delayed move rather than an immediate transfer.
- Next steps to watch include competing clubs lodging formal pre‑agreements, Tijuana setting a definitive asking price, and any plan for Mora to join a European side on loan after a deal is agreed and registration becomes possible.
