Liverpool 'step up interest in Burnley goalkeeper Nick Pope'

Liverpool reportedly carry out background checks on transfer target Nick Pope.

Liverpool have reportedly turned their attention to Burnley's Nick Pope in their search for a new goalkeeper.

The Reds have conducted background checks on the England international to establish whether he would be a suitable replacement for their out-of-favour stopper Loris Karius, according to The Mirror.

Liverpool are said to be keen to learn more about Pope's personality and mentality before they push forward with a bid.

Burnley reportedly value the 26-year-old, who replaced the injured Tom Heaton between their sticks last September, at around £18m.

The Merseyside outfit have also been linked with Roma's Alisson Becker and Jack Butland of Stoke City.
