      Reds linked with £12m move for Croatia star
      Liverpool are considering signing Croatia midfielder Marko Pjaca, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.

      The Reds are reportedly prepared to pay around £12million for the 21-year-old's services after impressing for his country at Euro 2016 so far.

      Liverpool have allegedly had a smaller bid rejected already by Dinamo Zagreb.

      But it is thought that AC Milan are leading the chase but they are yet to submit a firm offer for his services.

      “I can confirm that Milan like the player, and so do many top European clubs,” said Pjaca's agent Marko Naletilic. “From England to Germany and Italy, he has many admirers.”

      I don't know anything about the guy apart from the fact that on my Football Manager 2016 save, he looks pretty amazing and has been signed by Real Madrid. Anyone watched him playing for Croatia during the Euros, by any chance?

      He had limited game time but he looked pretty good. Looked like a great dribbler on the right wing. Hard to say much other than that because i think he only started one game and came on against Portugal as a sub.

      We have Coutinho, Mane, Lallana and Milner as our wing options for a 4-2-3-1, not to forget Ojo, Ibe and Markovic. If we're after another winger, it probably means Milner moves to the midfield role, and so the deal for Dahoud is dead?

      just connecting the dots..

      Will wait for Dado's thoughts on the player before making any opinion of this lad.

      Pjaca is quality toyed around in the domestic league over there.

      Has pace, power, technique and is a great dribbler of the ball. He can play on either wing too. I raved about links to Ante Coric earlier and said that he could be in the mould of Modric but Pjac abeit playing a different role is more ready and suitable to the premier league than Ante.

      I think he will be one of those players who if we don't sign we will be with regret  watching light it up for other big clubs in Europe. He has already been linked to Madrid, Milan, Juve etc. There is a good video of him below really putting his best attributes on show against Celtic in the EL, bagged a hattrick.

      Started against Spain and made Jordi Alba look a little silly on a few occasions he came on in extra time against Portugal and looked lively down the right again.

      Thanks for the vid Dado.

      First thing I noticed about him was he played out on the left wing and that he CAN USE BOTH FEET.

      How long has it been since we had a left sided player that could do that?

      Correct mate he plays on either wing and with either leg.

      Been a while buddy.

      Looks and sounds like a promising buy mate but one thing, he's not the fella who did that hair style of the Croatian flag on his head, was he?

      No mate that was Perisic.

      He's at Inter.

      Looks good in the video. Do you know Grujic enough to compares roles, styles?

      Grujic is more defensive or box to box midfilder. Pjaca is more offensive. Winger is in my opinion his best position, but he can play as forward as well.

      Not really mate seen very little. I can assure you though like all players from the Balkans he will be strong technically the biggest challenge for players is adapting to the physical demands of the premier league.

      Grujic is a big lad so he might just adapt quite easily.

      I apologies for my bad english. I came here  often read what people say about LFC, but this is first topic. Marko Pjaca is excellent player who will been even better with PL experience. He is better, intelligent and normal version of Sterling. Klopp please, sign him. :-)

      I translate this as Sterling from two seasons ago but without the attitude problem. If so, let's do it!

      All the traditional big clubs in Italy are now chasing him with Napoli in the mix too.

      Dinamo director said that the English teams after him are at an "advantage" not sure how to read into that but probably willing to pay more and upfront.

      Would love him here but my gut tells me he will end up elsewhere.
