Liverpool Looking to Agree $71.5million Signing – Contact Made

Liverpool were absolutely fantastic against the Gunners yesterday and ripped them apart by beating them 4-0 at Anfield.
After the draw against Watford, the Merseysiders have won their next 4 games in all competitions and are on a roll at the moment.
The Reds have a brilliant attacking line and stars like Mane, Salah and Firmino have constantly provided goals and assists this season.
Still, reports suggest that the Anfield club are interested in further improving their offense and a certain French international is in the lime light.

According to an exclusive report covered by Telegraph last night, Liverpool have made contact to sign Monaco star Thomas Lemar for a fee of 60 million euros ($71.5million).
The British source have mentioned that the approach for Lemar does not mean that Liverpool are prepared to sell Coutinho. Instead, the Merseysiders want to hold on to the Brazilian and also lure the Les Bleus playmaker.
The 21-year-old Ligue 1 star helped Monaco win the title last season and was also influential in the Champions League. In all competitions, Lemar scored 14 goals and provided no fewer than 17 assists.
In all fairness, Liverpool do not need Lemar and if they really have the above mentioned funds then they must spend the amount to sign a top center half.
