Liverpool keeping tabs on talent

The interest from Arsenal could be a problem for Liverpool as Mercato (h/t Mirror) claim that the Reds are closely watching the star.

Liverpool could do with more attacking options next season. Also, we could do with cover for Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane coming in.
