Liverpool are reportedly in advanced talks with Nice for midfielder Khephren Thuram, with Paris Saint-Germain also holding an interest in the France international.

Liverpool is reportedly the favoured destination of Nice midfielder Khephren Thuram this summer, with both clubs in advanced talks over a potential deal.

The 22-year-old has been a regular part of a Nice side who finished ninth in Ligue 1 this season, appearing in 35 matches and providing six goal contributions from midfield.

Having played for France at youth level, Thuram made his debut for the senior side during March's international break - albeit he only featured for a minute during France's 4-0 win over Netherlands in European Championship qualifying.

According to Football Transfer, Liverpool are in advanced talks with Thuram over a move to Anfield and the Premier League next season, with Jurgen Klopp aiming to bolster his midfield options.

The report adds that the youngster has also attracted interest from Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain, although the Merseyside club is the preferred destination of the player.

It is believed that Klopp is a huge admirer of the former Monaco man, and feels he could replace the likes of Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, who are departing the club this summer.
