Liverpool have reportedly ‘enquired’ over the possibility of signing Borussia Monchengladbach midfielder Denis Zakaria this month.
The Reds have been heavily linked with the 25-year-old previously and could land a bargain deal as the Swiss ace enters the final six months of a contract at the Bundesliga club.
Now according to journalist Jonathan Shrager on Twitter, the Anfield club have made their feelings known alongside Borussia Dortmund, Bayern Munich and Manchester United.
I am told that Manchester United, Liverpool, Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich have all recently enquired about the possibility of signing Denis Zakaria in January

Previously a report from German outlet SportBILD claimed that the 40-cap Switzerland international will be available for just £6million in the mid-season market.
So far this season Zakaria has scored twice and provided one assist in 16 appearances across all competitions.

Valued at £24.3million (Transfermarkt), signing the combative midfielder for free at the end of the season or indeed £6million now would be an exceptional piece of business.
Following recent issues with injuries and illness suffered within Jurgen Klopp’s squad, it’s easy to see why the Reds would be tempted to fast forward their move for the dependable Monchengladbach man.
Boasting strong attributes in both the attacking and defensive department, Zakaria would offer much-needed strength to the Anfield ranks and could provide the answer as to who will replace Gini Wijnaldum.
