A number of Liverpool fans have been calling for the Reds to sign Leicester City midfielder Youri Tielemans, following an update on his future.
Gini Wijnaldum has left Anfield after a superb five-year spell, meaning midfield reinforcements could be required this summer.
The Dutchman was a consistent performer for Liverpool, both in term of quality and fitness, so replacing him is not going to be an easy task for Jurgen Klopp.
One player who has been linked with a move to the Reds is Tielemans, with the Belgium international one of Leicester’s outstanding performers in 2020/21, including scoring the winning goal in the FA Cup final.
According to Eurosport, the 24-year-old has delayed discussions over a new Foxes deal until after he finishes Euro 2020 duties with Belgium, with doubt creeping in about his future.
