Liverpool told player club wanted as Sadio Mane replacement would 'walk into' best XI

Owen Hargreaves believes Son Heung-Min would 'walk' into the Liverpool side and any team in the Premier League after he was instrumental in Tottenham Hotspur upping their performance in the second half to beat Wolves 1-0 in North London.

Son didn't get himself on the scoresheet as Harry Kane was the man to give Antonio Conte's side the three points, but the Sout Korean played a pivotal role in taking Spurs over the line.

Jurgen Klopp is said to be a huge admirer of Son and reports earlier in the summer said that Liverpool were considering a bid for the South Korean if Spurs hadn't qualified for the Champions League. Whether the Reds would have been able to sign him is a different matter.
