Liverpool are set for a fight with Chelsea over Lorenzo Insigne.
The Napoli forward is becoming a valuable commodity in world football after scoring seven goals in the first ten games of his season.
Reports yesterday suggested the Reds were interested in signing the Italian international, and further claims today have stated Chelsea are also monitoring the 27-year-old.
Having coached Insigne in Naples, new Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri may have an immediate advantage over Liverpool in the battle.
The versatile attacker played 97 times in the last two seasons and became one of the first names on Sarri’s team sheet.
However, it’s important to remember that when it comes to transfer negotiations – money talks.
After a summer move for Nabil Fekir fell at the final hurdle, Jürgen Klopp is eager to bolster his attacking ranks in January.
Liverpool have looked stale and tired in recent matches, lacking a creative spark. Insigne may prove to be just a name on a list of possible candidates to make the move to Merseyside, however.
