Turkish outlet Fotomac (h/t Daily Star) claims Liverpool are interested in Turkish youngster Abdulkadir Omur.

The 19-year-old has impressed for Trabzonspor this season with two goals and three assists from 16 league appearances.

Omur is extremely versatile as he can play anywhere in midfield and the report adds that Manchester City and Roma are also interested in the youngster.

Trabzonspor value the 19-year-old at £27m and the report claims that they are not looking to sell the midfielder in January. However, a summer deal is possible and the report claims Liverpool have made enquiries for the Turk.

Liverpool have built a great team and are challenging for the title, and it would be great if we keep adding quality players in the coming years.

Jurgen Klopp spent huge in the summer in buying some top talent and it will be interesting to see if we make a move for the 19-year-old.

The Reds have several options in midfield and we also have Marko Grujic and Harry Wilson impressing away on loan.

What we do lack is an attacking midfielder currently but Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is expected to be back before the end of the season.

Omur has done well for Trabzonspor as the Turkish side are second in the league, and some quality performances from the midfielder could see his price rise more before the season ends.
