Koné has been linked in recent weeks and a report today from Germany insisted that Liverpool were serious about a move for him. 

Falk now backs that up, insisting that talks are heating up on a deal which could be worth around €30m in total.

“That’s true, Liverpool didn’t get Bellingham, who is going to Real Madrid, but they found an alternative in the Bundesliga that they like and that’s Manu Koné,” he said.

“We heard that the transfer negotiations are getting hot. The Gladbach midfielder has a contract until 2025 with a one-year option.

“The good thing for Liverpool is that he is much cheaper than Bellingham, they talk around €30m. So, it’s possible they don’t get Bellingham but another player from the Bundesliga.”
