Liverpool are ready to open talks with Barcelona's Cristian Tello in a move that could see his loan deal with Porto cut short.
According to Spanish outlet Fichajes (h/t George Bellshaw of Metro), the attacker has emerged as one of manager Jurgen Klopp's main targets and is considered to become an "important player" for the Reds if he moves to Anfield.
Klopp is described as "desperate" to land the 24-year-old, per Bellshaw, as he looks to welcome fresh blood into his squad. The player suits the style of football the German wants to play, injecting pace and trickery into the attack.
