Liverpool transfer news: Ozan Kabak loan deal close as Ben Davies signs from Preston

Liverpool are close to completing a loan deal for Schalke's Turkey central defender Ozan Kabak.

The 20-year-old will join Liverpool until the end of the season in addition to the deal which brings Preston North End's Ben Davies to Anfield for £2m.

Marseille's Duje Caleta-Car was also a potential target, with the Reds exploring a number of options in defence because of injuries.

Liverpool have an option to buy Kabak at the end of the season and will pay a £1m loan fee now with a potential for a £500,000 bonus based on games played and how they fare in the Champions League.
