On Monday, we covered claims made in France and Spain that explained Liverpool have an ‘advantage’ over Real Madrid in the race to sign Aurélien Tchouaméni.
It was also stated Los Blancos have asked the midfielder to continue at AS Monaco for one more year, something he ‘does not seem willing’ to do.
The 22-year-old is wanted by top European clubs, with Liverpool and Carlo Ancelotti’s side leading the chase.
That’s according to Fichajes.net, who explain the two Champions League finalists have ‘shown the most interest to date’ in acquiring the player’s services.
Jürgen Klopp is an admirer of the France international and has ‘given absolute priority’ for his arrival at Anfield in the summer. It’s claimed that Liverpool have made a ‘first great offer’, to get ahead of suitors to secure Tchouaméni’s signature.
The details of the Merseyside club’s proposal are not mentioned. However, the report does add a fee of €70m would be enough to convince Monaco to part ways with their prized asset.
Fichajes.net’s title states: ‘Liverpool threatens to leave Madrid without Tchouaméni’. Within the report, it’s said the Premier League side’s ‘offer would distance’ the Frenchman from the Ligue 1 side and Real Madrid.
