Recent stories have claimed the Reds may not spend too much on a midfielder this summer, but the rumours just won’t go away.

And reports from France now claim Real Madrid will stay away from Tchouameni this summer, clearing a path for Liverpool to make their move.

According to UOL, Antony is being eyed by Liverpool and Newcastle United, and he prefers the latter, likely because of the promise of game time.

He’s believed to be valued at just under £30m by his club.

Carragher plea

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has urged Mo Salah to sign a new contract as negotitations rumble on.

“I don’t think it will be at the forefront of their mind,” he told Sky Sports. “I think Mane will sign, Salah’s future is up in the air and [Roberto] Firmino may see his contract out. He may go for free at the end of next season.

“I think Salah should sign. He [Klopp] has turned good players into great players and Salah is one of them.

“This suits him, Jurgen Klopp suits him, but I think he should remember about two or three players who left and thought the grass was greener and then look at what they are doing this season.”
