Liverpool interested in signing reliable Bundesliga star

90min has revealed that the Bundesliga star has emerged as one of the options on Liverpool’s raider after calls rise for a second midfield singing alongside Fabio Carvalho.

Jurgen Klopp and his men haven’t gotten off to the greatest start this season after only claiming five points from four games.

The Reds have also suffered injury woes, with Thiago Alcantara, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita among those on the sidelines.
