Nicolo Barella is gearing up for a potentially career-defining few weeks on and off the pitch.
Having shelved initial plans to track Borussia Dortmund and England starlet Jude Bellingham when the market reopens - due to immense financial costs involved - Jurgen Klopp and the recruitment team at Anfield are busy mulling over their alternative options. Barella could be front and centre in that regard.
As countless names continue to do the rounds, Barella is an interesting proposition for the Reds alongside the other fanciful targets; including Alexis Mac Allister, Mason Mount and Ryan Gravenberch. Liverpool might have their eyes on all three, while the Italian could yet touch down in the UK as a Champions League winner.
