Jürgen Klopp’s side looked at the Lyon player two years ago and he’s back again on their agenda for next season.

It’s claimed the Merseyside club have ‘reactivated’ their interest in their old target, but that’s about the only information mentioned about Liverpool.

Lyon, for their part, are ready to allow Aouar leave if they receive an offer ‘between €20m and €25m’.
