Liverpool pushing to finalise another midfielder deal

Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool are keen to add another midfielder as well as a centre-back to complete their summer business, sources have told Football Insider.

The Merseysiders have already completed deals for midfielders Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister

It is believed Wolfsburg’s Micky van de Ven and Sporting CP star Goncalo Inacio are on the shortlist for Klopp’s side.

However, Josko Gvardiol will not be making the move to Anfield as he closes in on a big-money move to treble-winning Man City.

Meanwhile, another central midfielder has been placed high on the list of priorities for Liverpool’s recruitment staff

The Reds are willing to offer around £40million for the midfielder but the south coast club are believed to be holding out for a figure closer to the £50million mark.

France Under-21 duo Khephren Thuram and Manu Kone are also on the Merseysiders’ radar.
