Caglar Soyuncu has changed agents to a group with strong links with Liverpool, according to the Daily Mail.
Liverpool have been tentatively linked with the Leicester City centre-back in AS this week, with the Foxes said to value the Turkish international at £45 million.
Soyuncu is now represented by Arena 11 Sports group, who Liverpool have done past dealings with.
Arena 11 are Sadio Mane and Naby Keita’s agents, and are said to enjoy good links with Liverpool.
If the Reds do now push on with their interest in Soyuncu it could make the deal slightly easier for them to complete.
However, agreeing a fee with Leicester would surely be difficult.
The 24-year-old is very highly regarded at the King Power Stadium and has enjoyed an excellent season.
Despite recent claims that he could move for £45 million, it seems more likely that Leicester would demand a much higher fee.
And Liverpool would surely have to pay big money if they did want to partner Soyuncu up with Virgil van Dijk in the heart of their defence.
