Liverpool transfer news latest: Junior Firpo, Marco Asensio, Philippe Coutinho, Bruno Fernandes, Nicolas Pepe

Jurgen Klopp is looking to freshen up his Champions League-winning squad

Liverpool are reportedly ready to make their move for Real Betis full-back Junior Firpo.

The 22-year-old, who recently won the Under-21 European Championships with Spain, would come in as an understudy to first-choice left-back Andy Robertson.

Alberto Moreno's exit at the end of the season leaves the Scottish international as the only left back in the first-team squad.

Midfielder James Milner has deputised but Klopp would ideally like to find a fresh face this summer.

The Betis star has a €50m release clause in his contract with the Reds apparently now willing to trigger it, according to Marca.

Liverpool could be offered the chance to sign Marco Asensio this summer - but there's a catch.

Real Madrid have reportedly accelerated their pursuit of forward Sadio Mane with Asensio an apparent carrot available in any swap deal.

The Express claim that Jurgen Klopp has long been an admirer of Asensio and Madrid believe including the 23-year-old can tempt the Reds to depart with the Senegalese international.

Asensio has fallen down the pecking order at the Bernabeu somewhat with Eden Hazard's £150m arrival earlier this summer now another obstacle to first team football.

It remains to be seen whether the Reds are willing to part with Mane for any price, however.

Could Philippe Coutinho be on his way back to Anfield?

French publication Le10Sport claims that Liverpool are plotting a move to bring their former player back to the club.

The Brazilian has endured a turbulent time since joining Barcelona 18 months ago with the player himself admitting his future is uncertain.

But despite suggestions that Liverpool were content with their lot there has been a change of heart over Coutinho, it is claimed, with a surprise move still possible.

Portuguese newspaper A Bola has reported that Bruno Fernandes’ agent is flying to England to hold talks with a host of clubs, including Liverpool, regarding a £60m move for the Sporting Lisbon midfielder.

Rumours continue to swirl around a potential move for Lille forward Nicolas Pepe, with club president Gerard Lopez confirming that there has been “discussions with prestigious clubs.”

Barcelona forward Ousmane Dembélé has reiterated his desire to stay at the Catalan club and fight for his place, despite interest from both Liverpool and Bayern Munich.
