Liverpool have set their sights on two World Cup players ahead of January as Jurgen Klopp looks to bolster his squad for the second part of the season.
As a result, he earned a late call-up to France’s World Cup squad.
That’s according to Portuguese outlet A Bola, via Liverpool Echo, who claim that Liverpool's interest is 'concrete' and that 'firm talks' will be held with Benfica after the World Cup - where Silva played the full 90 minutes in the 2-1 defeat to South Korea.
However, as a result of the mounting interest in one of their star players, Valencia have already opened talks with Musah’s agent over a fresh deal, according to 90min.
The Reds have been faced with countless injuries throughout their team in the first half of the campaign, with Klopp now backed into a corner to make some big decisions and potentially sign some fresh faces.

Liverpool may be strongly linked with players in more forward positions but the latest reports have suggested that their first piece of business in January could involve a new central defender.
The Reds held previous interest in the 24-year-old before he joined Eintracht Frankfurt in the summer, where he has since registered eight goals and 10 assists in 22 games for the German outfit.
