Liverpool are the latest club to consider bidding for Monaco midfielder Aurélien Tchouameni,, who has been heavily linked with a move to Chelsea.
The 21-year old has forced hs way into the French national team in recent months, where he has become Paul Pogba’s regular partner.
The Stamford Bridge outfit have been keeping a close eye on him, with Thomas Tuchel having identified midfield as an area that needs strengthening ahead of next season.
But Liverpool are also monitoring his situation and could make a pre-emptive move for him in January. He is also reported to be on the radar of Juventus who want to partner him with Manuel Locatelli. .
