Liverpool need to reinforce almost every department in the summer transfer window and they are looking to strengthen the midfield.
The Reds have already signed versatile midfielder Marko Gurjic last winter and if reports are anything to go by then Liverpool want to sign a top defensive midfielder in the form of Lazio captain Lucas Biglia.
According to reports (Calciomercato via Corriere dello Sport), Liverpool will try to offer Italian striker Mario Balotelli in a sensational swap deal to bring Biglia to Anfield.
Klopp has been looking to sign (Don Balon) him for quite some time and it will be intriguing to see whether they can finally lure the South American with this interesting move.
As per the provided Calciomercato link, Manchester United are interested in signing the 30-year-old Argentine as well and saw their €25m bid rejected last summer. The Argentine club rate him around €36m (Star via Corriere dello Sport).
Biglia was an integral member of the squad that reached the World Cup final in 2014 and Copa America final last year. This season, Lucas has featured in 33 games, scored 5 goals and also provided 6 assists for the Serie A side (Transfermarkt).

Doesn’t fit Fenway’s criteria. He is also not a scouser / ours. Better to fetch ScottDann instead.
Why would we pay £30m for a player who is already into his 30’s? We are building for the future a team that can win titles and trophies so we need a couple of world class players along the lines of Lewandowski and Gotze.
