Napoli defender Faouzi Ghoulam becomes target for Liverpool?

Liverpool are reportedly preparing an offer to try to sign Napoli defender Faouzi Ghoulam during the summer transfer window.

Napoli defender Faouzi Ghoulam has reportedly emerged as a potential transfer target for Liverpool.

Manager Jurgen Klopp is currently looking to strengthen his squad with a left-back after midfielder James Milner deputised in that position this season.

A number of players have been linked, including Fulham's Ryan Sessegnon and Hull City's Andrew Robertson, but according to Italian transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, Ghoulam has been identified as a possible signing.

It has been suggested that Liverpool will make their move in the coming days, and the speculation has resulted in Ghoulam shying away from penning a new contract with the Serie A giants.

Since signing from Saint-Etienne in 2014, Ghoulam has made a total of 133 appearances in all competitions for Napoli.

During the past two seasons, he has helped the club finish in second and third place respectively in Italy's top flight.
