Liverpool are believed to be the frontrunners in the chase for Monaco midfielder Lamin Kamara. Manager Andoni Iraola is keen on bolstering his midfield during the January transfer window.
The 22-year-old Senegalese has also attracted interest from Arsenal, Manchester City, and Chelsea.
According to CaughtOffside, Liverpool have already held preliminary talks with the player's representatives. The Merseysiders are assessing the financial demands of the midfielder while evaluating his compatibility with Iraola's tactical setup. Scouts from Arsenal and Manchester City have also personally watched the Senegal international in action.
This time last year, Kamara was on the brink of a £47 million move to Chelsea, but Monaco pulled the plug at the last moment.
Now, the French club has hardened its stance. Reports indicate that they are seeking around £60 million for their star midfielder.
