Fiorentina star Sofyan Amrabat could provide an answer to Jurgen Klopp's midfield dilemma, according to one agent.
Amrabat has been impressing fans globally with his performances for Morocco in Qatar and was part of the side that dumped Spain out of the Last 16 stage on Tuesday evening.
Corriere Dello Sport claimed on Monday that the Reds had already made contact with the 26-year-old's representatives about a possible move and agent Gianluca Nani believes that he is a player that Klopp will be considering and will have plenty of cash to throw at the deal.

Speaking to Tuttomercatoweb, Nani said: “Amrabat is a very good player who didn’t start well. Maybe he’s not among the top three in the world in his role but he’s a good player who is justifying the money spent on him by Fiorentina. He’s at the centre of the project. Liverpool on him? I haven’t heard the word, also because I don’t look for it, I have a different job.
“But it is true that Liverpool are looking for more than one player in that role. I don’t know if Amrabat is on their list, then it’s difficult to say if he’s worthy of Liverpool : they’ll evaluate him even if in the Premier League the intensity needed is great. On the figures, if Liverpool want a player, they will spend even 100 million. It depends if they rate him as a Liverpool player or not. As far as Fiorentina are concerned, I am always for giving up in the face of fair offers and then reinvesting in the appropriate way.”
Amrabat has made 20 appearances for Fiorentina so far this season and played in all four of Morocco's World Cup matches so far. One attribute Klopp is less likely to be keen on is his tendency to picking up bookings. The Moroccan has collected 10 yellow cards so far this season - one in every two matches for the Serie A side.
