Due to two failed opportunities to strengthen their midfield, Liverpool has been forced to shift their focus elsewhere.
According to reports, Chelsea has beaten the Reds to signings of Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia.
Liverpool will aim to rapidly find options with only two weeks left in the summer transfer window.
Other names, some of which have already been linked, are Sofyan Amrabat and Ryan Gravenberch.
Joao Palhinha of Fulham is the next player on the list, and rumors linking him to Liverpool appear to be growing.
According to tweets from Sacha Tavolieri, he is “still part of the options in the midfield for Liverpool FC.”
A tweet he sent in July stating that the Reds were “the most keen club to get him” was published by the journalist.
Liverpool might be willing to spend about £52 million to acquire Palhinha.
