Liverpool might have signed a couple of midfielders this season in Naby Keita and Fabinho but the club is still looking to add one more into the mix, according to David Maddock of the Mirror.

The journalist tweeted that we are not interested in signing either Domagoj Vida or Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish but want to bring in an attacking midfielder.

Liverpool were linked with a big-money move for Nabil Fekir but that went down the drain as the club backed out of a deal at the last minute after a knee issue came up during the medical.

We haven’t looked at many players seriously after the deal fell through and with the World Cup still on, it would be difficult to make a move at all.

Xherdan Shaqiri

One player that has been linked with us is Xherdan Shaqiri but even he has become a little quiet despite claiming that he would let people know which his new club would be.

We could move for Fekir after the World Cup comes to an end. He is with the France squad as they look to win the World Cup after reaching the finals of the tournament.

Either way, we do need to bring in more options for our attack and a versatile midfielder could be the answer to our chances of winning a trophy or two next season.

Fekir and Shaqiri can both play down the middle or on the wing and either of them would be a great addition to the side next season.
