Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is reportedly urging the club’s board to pursue a move for Lyon star Houssem Aouar this summer.
The Frenchman has been in fine form for his side this season, netting on seven occasions in all competitions, and admirers from across Europe appear to be circling.
Aouar is regarded as a hugely promising player in Ligue 1 and is a valuable option for Lyon boss Bruno Genesio.
However, according to claims from French news outlet Le10 Sport, as cited in a report from TEAMtalk, Liverpool are ready to step up their interest in bringing him to Anfield.
The 20-year-old is likely to be hot property in the summer transfer window, and Reds boss Klopp appears to be intent on winning the race for his signature.
Lyon are reportedly determined to hold on to their promising youngster this summer, but could struggle as the allure of a move to the Premier League with Liverpool presents itself as a possibility.
