Liverpool took Ozan Kabak on loan from Schalke in the winter market and the pushed the possibility of making his stay permanent for the summer.
There’s still no clarity if the Reds will keep Kabak beyond this season as other centre-backs continue to be linked with a move to the Merseyside club.
Fiorentina’s Nikola Milenković is among them and earlier reports indicated Jürgen Klopp’s side have initiated contact with his entourage.
Friday’s edition of Corriere Fiorentino explains the Anfield club are in the picture for the Serbia international, whose contract expires in 2022.
There was also interest from Napoli and AC Milan, but the defender isn’t in favour of joining either of them because he wants to ‘compete elsewhere’, the Premier League to be precise.
There were on the course to earn figures in this region, but this was before his poor displays in Serbia’s 2-2 draw against Portugal.
Milenković was at fault for the two goals scored by Liverpool’s Diogo Jota for Portugal.
Therefore, his valuation has dropped and clubs interested in him, including Liverpool, have ‘taken a pause’ to reflect on his potential signing in the next market.
