Latest Aston Villa news from BirminghamLive as BoubacarKamara is claimed to have attracted interest from Liverpool
Aston Villa’s Boubacar Kamara is on “the list” of midfield transfer targets for Liverpool, it has been claimed.

And his performance are said to have attracted admiring glances from Anfield, according to the Athletic.
Liverpool are reportedly looking at Southampton’s Romeo Lavia as their main midfield target, but
Kamara has now emerged as a potential alternative.
The report claims Jurgen Klopp’s recruitment team are “hard at work identifying the best candidates to target for the No 6 role”. It is claimed Kamara is among them, alongside Lavia and the likes of Manchester City’s Kalvin Phillips and Bayern Munich’s Ryan Gravenberch.
Liverpool will be keen to strengthen midfield this summer with captain Jordan Henderson completing a move to Saudi Arabian side Al-Ettifaq on Thursday. Fabinho has also been linked with a move away from Merseyside.There’s also the small matter of a European campaign as Villa prepare to battle with other teams from abroad.
