Liverpool are keen admirers of Max Meyer according to reports, and will rival Tottenham Hotspur for his signature.

Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp is a keen admirer of Schalke’s highly rated attacking midfielder Max Meyer and will rival Spurs for his signature according to French media outlet Le10Sport, and reported via the Liverpool Echo.

Tottenham were heavily linked with a move for the German throughout the course of the summer (Daily Mail), but a move failed to materialise, although speculation regarding the 21-year-old’s future has continued to mount.

The report from Le10Sport goes on to claim that Klopp is willing to do anything to convince Meyer to move to Anfield, and reported again via the Liverpool Echo.

The Merseyside outfit have been in magnificent form so far this season, and currently sit top of the Premier League table after a series of high-octane displays that have been epitomised by the dynamic movement of their front-three.

It is questionable whether Klopp would be able to find a place for Meyer in his current side, although with him being at such a young age still, he will most certainly be a signing made more with the future in mind.

With the January transfer window fast approaching, this is likely to be a story that gathers momentum as the season heads into, and past, the Christmas period.
