Liverpool are monitoring RB Leipzig’s Timo Werner, ahead of a potential move in the summer, for what could be a double swoop from the German side with the signing of Naby Keita.

The 22-year-old forward has developed hugely at the Bundesliga club, and attracted the attention of a few Premier League clubs including Manchester United, but it is Jürgen Klopp who has shown by far the strongest interest. He wants to add depth to his attacking options this summer.

Negotiating with Leipzig may be difficult, though, especially given how drawn-out the deal for Keita was.
