Liverpool are on the brink of signing Monaco star Thomas Lemar, according to reports in France.
The Reds are long-term admirers of Lemar and were linked with a move for the 22-year-old last summer.
Arsenal were also interested in the forward, but he ended up staying in France as no clubs were willing no meet Monaco’s £88million asking price.
The France international caught the attention of a host of top sides with a prolific campaign for Monaco last season, scoring 14 goals and claiming 17 assists.
He has been quieter this term netting only three times with eight assists, but Liverpool remain keen.
