Liverpool should've signed the "magical" Mateo Kovacic, according to David James, who felt the Croatian would've suited the Reds.
Manchester City look set to swoop in and capture the midfielder from Chelsea in a £30m deal. Pep Guardiola is looking for midfield recruits as he prepares for several exits in that position, but Liverpool too need to bolster their options in the middle of the park.
Several stalwarts have been allowed to leave Anfield with Alexis Mac Allister coming in from Brighton, but more new faces are expected to arrive. James has doubts over whether Kovacic will fit into City's system, but is adamant he'd have suited Jurgen Klopp's style.
