The Reds are keen to bring in a new midfielder and face fierce competition with Chelsea over both stars, who play for Brighton and Southampton respectively. Liverpool thought they were ready to welcome Caicedo to Anfield after agreeing a stunning £111m deal for the midfielder. But it is Chelsea who are reportedly set to sign Caicedo from Brighton after agreeing a British record deal worth £115m.

Chelsea have reportedly launched a £55m offer to sign the 19-year-old and it is thought that Klopp’s side will match that bid as they look to tempt him to Anfield. Klopp was coy when asked about specific interest in both players but when quizzed about bringing in a new No.6, Klopp said: ‘These specific players, you can see in the moment the market is obviously crazy.
