Liverpool are reportedly considering a move to sign RB Leipzig's attacking midfielder Christopher Nkunku next summer.
The 23-year-old starred in the Champions League on Wednesday night, scoring a hat-trick against Manchester City, though the German club were thrashed 6-3 in a thrilling encounter at the Etihad Stadium.
According to the Liverpool Echo, Jurgen Klopp continues to search for new attacking options and has identified Nkunku as a potential signing.
The Reds have a strong relationship with the Red Bull franchise, having previously signed players including Sadio Mane, Naby Keita, Takumi Minamino and also this summer's addition Ibrahima Konate.
Nkunku came through the ranks at Paris Saint-Germain and played 78 times for the senior side before joining Leipzig in July 2019.
The Frenchman enjoyed a successful campaign in front of goal last season, scoring seven times and providing 11 assists in 40 appearances across all competitions.
