Liverpool are considering a permanent move for Grzegorz Krychowiak after the culmination of the midfielder’s loan spell at West Bromwich Albion, that is according to the Sun.

The newspaper claims Jurgen Klopp has added Krychowiak to his summer hit list after Emre Can left for Juventus.

However, it adds that the Paris Saint-Germain player would not be a regular starter for Liverpool, who have already added Fabinho and Naby Keita to their options this summer.

Dynamo Moscow are also named as Krychowiak suitors, and although PSG’s plans for him are not disclosed within the Sun’s report, the newspaper states the 28-year-old does not wish to return to a bench role at the Parc des Princes.

However, one the Poland international’s best displays came in an FA Cup fourth round win for the Baggies at Anfield.
