Liverpool Transfer News: Nabil Fekir's Agent Confirms Reds' Interest

Lyon playmaker Nabil Fekir is a target for Liverpool, his agent Jean-Pierre Bernes has confirmed, but the club are not yet close to landing him.

According to the Mirror's Paul Gorst and Alex Smith, Fekir's camp were rumoured to have flown to Liverpool to negotiate a £60 million deal that would send him to Anfield, but Bernes rejected such talk.

He told French newspaper Le Progres (h/t Gorst and Smith):

"I did not leave Marseille [this weekend], I am with my family.

"But I will be clear, we will go with Nabil to Liverpool or elsewhere when there is an agreement with Lyon and if [owner] Jean-Michel Aulas gives the green light.
