Liverpool 'readying new Thomas Lemar bid in January'

Liverpool are reportedly lining up a January approach from Monaco winger Thomas Lemar, having failed with a £75m bid during the summer.

Liverpool will reportedly revive their interest in Monaco winger Thomas Lemar once the transfer window reopens next month.

The Reds were one of a number of clubs who were interested in Lemar towards the closing stages of the summer window and are understood to have made a club-record £75m offer for the France international.

No deal materialised on that occasion, but L'Equipe reports that Liverpool could go back in for the 22-year-old in January.

The report goes on to claim that Jurgen Klopp is beginning to plan for the departure of Philippe Coutinho, who has been heavily linked with a move to Barcelona and could leave the club at the end of the season.

Lemar is understood to be willing to leave the Stade Louis II, with Monaco having already been eliminated from Europe and sitting nine points adrift of Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1.

However, Liverpool are likely to face competition for his signature, with the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea, Bayern Munich and Barcelona also credited with an interest.

Lemar has scored just one goal in his 11 Ligue 1 appearances so far this season.
