Nice set price tag of €60million for Liverpool target Saint-Maximin

Liverpool target Allan Saint-Maximin is said to be valued by Ligue 1 side OGC Nice at €60million amid interest from Serie A giants AC Milan.

Reports last summer suggested Jurgen Klopp was interested in a move for the winger prior to signing Xherdan Shaqiri, following his impressive debut season for Nice.

And according to Calcio Mercato, via French outlet RMC Sport, the Ligue 1 outfit will be willing to allow the 21-year-old to leave the club at the end of the season for a fee in the region of €60million.

Milan had been close to agreeing a deal for the Frenchman in January before the move fell through on deadline day, however the report suggests the Serie A side now appear less interested in a second pursuit of the winger due to concerns regarding his discipline.

Saint-Maximin was publicly criticised by Nice manager Patrick Vieira after ruling himself out of a Ligue 1 clash with Angers in February, which his side lost 3-0.

The winger has scored six goals and created three assists for Nice in 30 Ligue 1 appearances this season.
