With 12 months left on his current contract and a release clause of £42million, Jurgen Klopp's team are reportedly keen on taking advantage of Gavi's situation.

But Laporta's announcement that a new deal is close may end any chance of Gavi making the move from Spain to England, with a huge release clause set to be inserted into the new contract.
