Liverpool and Man City battle for £66m teenager as West Ham United make £70m Jarrod Bowen decision

Liverpool have already made a key addition to the squad this season with the arrival of Luis Diaz from Porto back in January.

The Colombia international has already made an impression and could prove to be a difference maker for the remainder of the campaign.

With the end of the season in sight, attention is already turning to the summer transfer window and how Jurgen Klopp may look to further improve his squad.

What?

Liverpool may have to pay upwards of £70m for West Ham winger Jarrod Bowen should they make a move in the summer, if recent reports are to be believed.

The Reds' interest in the 25-year-old is no secret, but a move for the player is yet to materialise.

Bowen's value continues to rise and according to outlet CaughtOffside, the London club are now likely to insist he is worth 'at least £75million'.

The attacker is a player of interest among those that matter at Anfield, along with Raphinha, but both West Ham and Leeds United are reluctant to sell, with the latter already working on a contract extension to fend of interest from elsewhere.

Who?

Yeremy Pino

Where?

What?

The form of Villarreal youngster Yeremy Pino is catching the eye of clubs across Europe, including Liverpool, according to the latest reports.

The 19-year-old has now scored seven times in all competitions for the La Liga club this season and the Reds, along with Manchester City, are reportedly the latest to register an interest in Pino.

It goes on to say that Chelsea and Arsenal are also keen, but it is Pep Guardiola and Klopp that are 'most interested'.

However, with a contract until 2027, Villarreal will likely demand a significant fee to part ways with one of their most promising young talents.

Pino is said to have a release clause of £66m.

Who?

Franck Kessie

Where?

What?

Liverpool are one of the clubs that have been linked with AC Milan midfielder Franck Kessie, who is set to leave the Serie A giants on a free transfer in the summer.

However, recent reports from Italy suggest it is Barcelona that now lead the race for the player, although Tottenham and Paris Saint-Germain have also been linked.

SportItalia’s Gianluigi Longari claims there is 'already a verbal agreement' in place between Kessie and Barcelona, although he notes the agent's demands are making a move difficult.

Liverpool may look to bolster their midfield options in the summer after not replacing Georginio Wijnaldum at the end of last season, but Kessie is just one of a number of names that have been mentioned by media outlets across Europe.
