Liverpool consider swoop for Bristol City star Kelly

Liverpool are keeping an eye on Bristol City left-back Lloyd Kelly and could reportedly move to sign him this summer.

The Reds were linked with a swoop to sign the defender during the January transfer window as they began to prepare for Alberto Moreno’s impending summer departure. 

With his contract rapidly approaching its expiration at the end of the season, the Spaniard looks set to walk away on a free transfer.

Should Moreno move on, Liverpool would be left with only one senior option on the left-hand side of the defence in Andy Robertson, and adding depth to this position appears to be high up on Jurgen Klopp’s priority list this summer.

According to a report from Football Insider, the Reds have regularly sent scouts to watch Kelly in action for Bristol City this season and have been left impressed by his efforts. 

The defender is an established international for the England Under-21s and has often turned in eye-catching displays in the Championship this term.
