Liverpool were interested in signing Aurelien Tchouameni during the summer transfer window, but the Frenchman ended up leaving Monaco for Real Madrid.
Reports suggest the Reds are looking to beat Real Madrid by signing Jude Bellingham after losing the win over the Blues midfielder.
According to Spanish source Nacional, the Merseysiders want revenge after they failed to remove Tchouameni, who is now performing well at the Bernabeu.
Manager Jurgen Klopp has ordered the Anfield club to inject the cash to sign Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund, who is also on Los Blancos’ radar.
The Catalan outlet say Liverpool are preparing an initial offer of £70m (€80m) for the England international. However, it was reported that the German Bundesliga team would demand at least € 100m (£ 87m) from the sale of their prized possession.
It will be fair to say that to date the Reds have failed to replace Steven Gerrard, who was a world-class box-to-box midfielder.
The retired England team was a constant source of energy in the center of the park. He knew how to tackle, score driving races, score goals and provide assists.
Stevie G has excelled in every midfield position and now Jude Bellingham is proving to be a complete midfielder like him. Will Liverpool be able to beat Real Madrid to secure the signing? Time will tell.
