Liverpool handed Aurelien Tchouameni transfer 'boost' as Barcelona target Sadio Mane

The season is coming to an end and the talk of the summer transfer window is hotting up as teams look to improve on their current campaign with new signings. First of all, Liverpool have business to attend to and that means lifting their second trophy of the year on Saturday.

Liverpool take on Chelsea at Wembley at the weekend in their first FA Cup final under Jurgen Klopp - giving the German the chance to complete the set of honours to be won while in the hot seat at Anfield.

The Reds will be without Fabinho at Wembley after the midfielder suffered a hamstring injury, so Jordan Henderson looks set to fill that deeper role as he did when he came on at Villa Park. Here are your Liverpool transfer rumours for Thursday, May 12.
