Liverpool pulling out of the race to sign now Real Madrid-bound Jude Bellingham meant supporters had to find a new object of their desires ahead of the Reds' planned midfield revamp this summer.
Jurgen Klopp completed his first signing of the summer earlier this week, a £35m coup for World Cup winner Alexis Mac Allister. Liverpool are plotting to sign at least two new midfielders, as a result, a plethora of names continue to be linked with a switch to Anfield.
Nicolo Barella is perhaps the most glamorous name who continues to be linked with Liverpool, as Kopites now switch attention to who will be the next midfield recruit at Anfield as Bellingham heads to the Bernabeu.
