Liverpool have been tipped to make a move for Bayern Munich attacker Thomas Muller in January.
German transfer expert Kevin Hatchard has revealed that he believes that a move could be on the cards this January, with Liverpool being one of the best destinations for the Bayern star.
Speaking to the Liverpool Echo’s Blood Red podcast, Hatchard believes that the player could be on his way to Anfield, especially due to the fact he has been limited to appearances from the bench.
I think there is a genuine discomfort for Muller at the moment because he’s been on the bench for the last five games.
People go on about his goal output has dropped, but you look at the assists, he is still very much involved in a lot of the good stuff Bayern can do.
He’s in a position he’s never really been in at Bayern which is somebody who is having to really scrap for a starting spot.
The arrival of Coutinho has put him under pressure because Muller operates in that No.10 role. It’s probably the biggest challenge of Muller’s career.
I still think he is a very, very good footballer and any top Premier League team would benefit from having him in the building.The fluid nature of it would appeal to Muller, without question because his movement is incredible.
He’s so elusive, he picks up positions a lot of players simply don’t and I think he’d be a huge boost to Liverpool.
I think Premier League clubs will be on alert.

Muller could be a quality signing and would add some quality to the Liverpool attack.
He could become a solid backup up front, and also potentially play in midfield as an attacking player.
The German may be approaching is last few years in the game, but he still has a lot to give meaning he could be a vital player for the Reds.
