Liverpool legend Dietmar Hamann has urged the Reds to sign Newcastle ace Joelinton to solve their midfield issues.
Jurgen Klopp is keen to bolster his ranks before Thursday's transfer deadline as his team continue to struggle in the middle of the park.
Thiago Alcantara, Naby Keita, Curtis Jones and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are all currently out injured, while Jordan Henderson, 32, and James Milner, 36, have failed to put in the performances expected at the very highest level as their age catches up with them.
Sportsmail understands that Klopp is unlikely to get his wish as there is no Champions League-standard player who is immediately available.
