Liverpool 'eyeing shock £100m move for boyhood fan from Premier League rival as champions look to continue summer spending spree'

Liverpool are reportedly considering making another big money move, this time for a player from a Premier League rival.

The Reds have already been very active this summer, agreeing a record-breaking deal to sign Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen.

The Germany star will complete a switch to the Premier League champions for a club-record £100m, which could rise to a British-record £116m, after turning down Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.

Arne Slot's side have already signed Valencia keeper Giorgi Mamardashvili for £29m and Leverkusen’s Jeremie Frimpong for £29.
