Liverpool are lining up a bid for Schalke starlet Max Meyer.
Reds boss Jürgen Klopp is a huge fan of the 20-year-old midfielder and tried to sign him while he was in charge at Borussia Dortmund.
And now, according to Bild, the German is attempting to land his compatriot this summer as he continues to rebuild his Liverpool squad.
Liverpool's interest in the midfield talent dates back to 2014, when Chelsea also looked into bringing the then-teenager over to England.
But he has so far stayed put at Schalke and established himself as one of the best young players in German football.
Despite his age, Meyer has already played 95 times in the Bundesliga and Schalke are desperate to keep hold of him.
However it has been suggested that Liverpool are ready to test their resolve to keep him with an offer worth just over £28m for a player who is not yet 21 and within the final two years of his contract.
