A select round-up of the latest transfer news relating to Liverpool…

Liverpool title hopes were dented by a 2-2 draw away at Sunderland on Monday afternoon, with the Reds losing the lead twice by giving away two penalties at the Stadium of Light.

The game saw Sadio Mane appear for the final time before heading off to the Africa Cup of Nations with Senegal, and many believe that the Reds will look to bring in a new winger to take his place.

With the transfer window now open, fans are hoping to see new faces arrive at Anfield, with one name in particular linked with the club today.

The Daily Mail report that Liverpool have invited Coventry City defender Cian Harries to come and train with the club ahead of a possible move to Anfield.

Harries, 19, has come up through the ranks at the Ricoh Arena, and the centre back has been offered a trial with Liverpool, which could lead to him joining the development ranks at Anfield, with Coventry desperate for cash.

Elsewhere, the Liverpool Echo report that five clubs want to sign Reds holding midfielder Kevin Stewart – but Liverpool have rebuffed all enquiries, as they want to keep hold of the youngster.

Former Spurs trainee Stewart, 23, has impressed when given a chance this season, and his performances are believed to have attracted the interest of Aston Villa, Brighton and Hove Albon, Newcastle United, Swansea City and West Bromwich Albion.

It’s stated that Liverpool, who rejected a £6million bid from an unnamed club for Stewart over the summer, now value Stewart at around £10million to £12million,and will fend off interest in him this month.

In other news, The Mirror report that youngster Pedro Chirivella is set to join Dutch club Go Ahead Eagles on loan, as whilst manager Jurgen Klopp is a big fan of the Spanish midfielder, he wants him to go and get some first-team football – and he’ll seemingly be leaving Anfield until the summer.
