Liverpool have stepped up their interest in Bayern Munich midfielder Ryan Gravenberch, according to Jonathan Northcroft of The Sunday Times.
The engine room at Anfield has come under scrutiny this season in what has been an unconvincing campaign from Jurgen Klopp's side. With James Milner, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain set for an exit at the end of their contracts plus the age of other options in Jordan Henderson and Fabinho, an upheaval in the middle of the pitch is in the works.
Liverpool cooled the pursuit of 19-year-old Jude Bellingham this week as they ended their long-term interest in the Borussia Dortmund star. As a result, the strategy from chiefs in L4 is to spread the outlay of their transfer funds on several signings as opposed to committing the majority on one arrival.
