Liverpool are reportedly keeping a close eye on Sampdoria's Mikkel Damsgaard ahead of making a potential bid for the midfielder.
The 21-year-old has seen his profile increase over the summer after impressing for Euro 2020 semi-finalists Denmark, scoring two goals and providing one assist in five appearances.
Damsgaard's performances have alerted a number of Premier League clubs this summer, including Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa.
According to Italian news outlet IL Secolo XIX, scouts from the Reds were spotted at Sampdoria's match against AC Milan on Monday night, with the midfielder playing the full 90 minutes.
Liverpool will consider making a late bid for the Dane in the final few days of this summer's window, as they contemplate finding a replacement for Xherdan Shaqiri, who was sold to Lyon earlier this week.
Damsgaard, who is valued in the region of £29.8m, made 35 Serie A appearances last season, scoring two goals and providing four assists.
