Liverpool have so far failed in their pursuit to sign Naby Keita from Leipzig and it seems that they are already looking at alternatives.
To make matters worse, star midfielder Adam Lallana has been ruled out by the Merseysiders for the next two months at least. This means that Klopp must sign a new midfielder before deadline day to reinforce the department.
In such a scenario, a versatile French midfielder is linked with the Reds. The player in discussion is Rennais star Benjamin Andre.
According to French source Le Telegramme, Liverpool are going to make a solid offer for the 27-year-old midfielder in the next few days. It is expected that the offer will be worth 17 million euros.

Andre can play anywhere in the midfield. He mostly played in the central midfield last season but Le Telegramme suggest that the 27-year-old star is naturally a play breaker.
In the last campaign, Benjamin featured in 36 league games for the French side and provided 3 assists.
Liverpool have lacked a proven quality defensive midfielder since the departure of Javier Mascherano to Barcelona in 2010. In the current squad, the likes of Can and skipper Henderson can operate in the DM role but they are not specialist play breakers.
In your opinion, should Klopp sign Benjamin Andre?
